Re: [Evolution] Encoding / Charset and Norwegian characters

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

this gconf problem is fixed in CVS already. the problem is that you
never actually set it via the gui. or, at least, that's the only way I
was able to reproduce it... I've added code to check for "" as the
charset and if it gets that, then it defaults to the locale charset
instead.
