Hello.
Here in Denmark, we now have the possibility to make international
domaines now, with special scandinavian letters like 'æøå' (ae oe aa) ..
But it seems that PowerMail 6.0.4 is not capable of handling this?
Character set preferences in PM is set to:
For language family: US / Western Europe
Use character set: ISO-8859-1
Preferred family: US / Western Europe
For undefined incomming: ISO-8859-1
Whenever i try to make a new mail, and write a recipient with a name
like 'sø...@bæk.dk' then 2 things will happend; First, anything after
the 'ø' is completly ignored and the address book tries to match up a
address for anybody with an 's' .. Second, if i try to write
'sssø...@bæk.dk' in order to avoid the addressbook lookup, and press
enter, then email is displayed as 'sss r...@b k.dk' .. PM is making
spaces instead..!?
The ISO codes im using is: 230, 248, 229, 198, 216 and 197 (æ ø å Æ Ø Å) ..

The above also goes for when recieving mails from a person like 'Søren
Bæk <sø...@bæk.dk>' .. PM will display 'Søren Bæk <s r...@b k.dk> in the
From: field..
Am I using the wrong preferences or what?
Regards,
Ulrik.

PowerMail does not currently support international domain names or email
addresses.

Almost as annoying is PM's inability to transfer accented characters to
the 'Display Name' field in is Address book. Indeed entering an accented
character stops the filling of the 'Display Name' dead. An annoyance
that has been around for too long.
