I'm sorry Jérome, you're not being candid. A corrupt font in my system is not the only possibility; PowerMail's inability to properly implement the fallback mechanism in case of missing Unicode characters is much more likely. I told you I checked the fonts and found them sound. PowerMail uses the default system fonts for chinese, and I checked the same fonts are also used by other programs. Finally, all the built in tools you mentioned have been useless.
I wish you good luck. Amnon. PowerMail Engineering wrote: > Your crash log clearly shows a system problem related to fonts.
