I see more or less the same thing. My personal preference is
ignored. Sometimes the content changes to English, while the
navigation menu's are still in Dutch. It looks as if there are
some issues here.

There's a bug in the collector which suggests this functionality
may not have made it into 2.1, although it seems to be there.

There is also a comment from Alexander Limi in another language
issue:
http://plone.org/collector/2129
... which suggest that Plone uses the prefered language
configured in the browser.

I assume this is 2.1.1 or 2.1.almost-1

Are you sure you want to do that? Plone just moved from Epoz to
Kupu in 2.1.

>I tried to find the PloneLanguageTool in my installation but without success.
>Where can I find it if it is installed. 

In Plone 2.1.1 you'll find it in site setup > product management
(reverse-translated from a Dutch Plone). It is in the
distribution, but it's not installed by default (I don't know
why). Select it, and click 'install'. Then go to site settings >
language settings.

Unfortunately, it's not clear how the portal-wide settings,
personal preference and browser setting interact. In particular,
when 'Use browser language request negotiation' is enabled in
PloneLanguageTool, I don't know what should win: the language
chosen in Plone's personal preference, or the language(s) chosen
in the browser.

>Is it necessary to set the languages?

PloneLanguageTool allows you to configure the portal-wide
default, language negotiation scheme etc.
