Presume you are talking about the xlfd name of the efont that I mentioned above that displayed only Japanese but no ascii. -efont-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-1 There was no actual encoding choices on that font except for the default which was as above. my normal setting uses -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1 as for locale stuff I didn't do anything special. I started evolution like below. LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.eucjp LC_MESSAGES=en_US XMODIFIERS="@im=kinput2" evolution I also tried using ja_JP.utf8 but on starting I got the following message Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C and no Japanese was displayed at all. Currently I can see subjects/names in the message list summary pane but not in the preview pane or message window.
