Re: [Evolution] Encoding / Charset and Norwegian characters

[Erik Bågfors <erik bagfors nu>]

Well,

I actually tried to set it via the gui but the setting never happened. 
I changed it to UTF-8 and that didn't change the setting, then back to
ISO-8859-1 and that didn't happen.  Then I just set it in gconf-editor
and it worked.
