BTW, I am running Mandrake 9.2 as an upgrade from 9.1. Tom I am using US International keyboard and set the encoding to Western European New (ISO-8859-15) and the Umlaut seem to work. Ü, ü, Ä, ä, ö, Ö Tom On Thu, 2003-12-18 at 14:20, Thomas Plümpe wrote:
I noticed the following line in the header of your message "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=" Have you forgotten to set the character encoding? I did that when I started using Evolution, and got the same result as you. What happens if you, when writing a message, do edit->Character Encoding->Western European (ISO-8859-1), will it work then?Yes it does!! I've just sent a test mail to myself doing this and then another one where I didn't do it. The first one looks like it should, the second one does have the garbled characters. I've been using evolution since Mandrake 8.2 and never had this problem before so I wasn't even aware I could set this and when I looked through the preferences I didn't find such a setting. Apparently I hadn't looked hard enough, because now I see it's actually there. Thank you so much! This should look alright now: ä (a), ö (o), Ü (U), ß (sz) Thanks again, Thomas _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - evolution lists ximian com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
