It depends on recode and iconv support in your php installation and things that you are willing to change in squirrelmail and your php install. See http://www.topolis.lt/pub/squirrelmail/1.4.3a.utf8-1/ Please note: 1. there are no waranties. use it on your own risk. 2. don't file bugs against this package in SquirrelMail bugtracker, if you can't reproduce same bug on vanilla squirrelmail install. Don't disturb other developers with problems in that package. This is experimental package done for some squirrelmail installs. 3. decoding in compose will be added in 1.4.3a.utf8-2. 4. You can write decoding functions that don't add dependency on iconv or recode or mbstring, but you will fry server that runs such squirrelmail version. 5. You can remove dependency on recode in Japanese translation, but only if you remove Japanese extra functions or keep original squirrelmail decoding functions only for Japanese. 6. some strpad and strlen function calls still have to be fixed. 7. If your users store 8bit data in their preferences - it will be broken. 8. these changes are done by person, that prefers utf-8 and one charset for all squirrelmail translations. If you have recode support in your php install and need only reading support, diff file can be smaller. 9. some preg_replace calls might produce errors on RedHat 7.x installs. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
