I get e-mail in Japanese but can't read them using encoding=sjis. I noticed that if I boot linux into Japanese it works. Unfortunately I need to work in English except for those messages.
First of all, you should tell us what version of evolution, what distribution, and what you're using for kana-kanji conversion. If you're using Evo 1.2.x I'm afraid I can't help you -- I'm in the same boat. I've already filed bug #36049 about this problem. If you're using 1.0.8, try this to read and compose Japanese email, while retaining English menus, etc. LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.ujis LC_MESSAGES=en_US XMODIFIERS="@im=kinput2" export LANG LC_CTYPE LC_MESSAGES XMODIFIERS kinput2 -canna& evolution This assumes you're using canna and kinput2. If you're using something else, you're on your own. BTW, why are you using Shit-JIS? Are your correspondents sending you email from cellphones? The preferred encodings are iso-2022-jp and euc-jp. -- Stuart Luppescu -=- s-luppescu uchicago edu University of Chicago -=- CCSR 才文と智奈美の父 -=- Kernel 2.4.19-pre10-xf The new frame relay network hasn't bedded down the software loop transmitter yet.
