I am experiencing a problem sending Japanese characters from Squirrelmail using the English interface.
They end up in the users mailbox as テツ
if I send through my mail server via mail client like Thunderbird. The text is received correctly. Also if I send via Squirrel Mail with the Japanese interface the characters are printed correctly as well.
Is there a way to switch the encoding to something like UTF-8 so it will send Japanese from the English version of Squirrel Mail?
edit functions/i18n.php and set utf-8 charset for en_US translation in $languages array or check custom_charset plugin.

Tomas thanks for your suggestion but I that did not work for me... most of the text Kanji, Hirigana and Katakana is moji baki (unreadable) regardless of what I change the en_US encoding to. I have tried utf-8 and ja-utf-8 (saw this in phpmyadmin). Also I noticed what ever I changed the encoding to this is what appeared in the header <snip>
User-Agent: SquirrelMail/1.4.4-1.FC2
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain;charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
<snip>
I changed these lines in i18n.php
<code>
$languages['en_US']['NAME'] = 'English';
$languages['en_US']['CHARSET'] = 'utf-8';
$languages['en_US']['LOCALE'] = 'en_US.utf-8';
$languages['en']['ALIAS'] = 'en_US';
</code> Was I changing the wrong lines or is there something else I need to change? My problem is I have a number of bi-lingual users who's first language is English but have to communicate with customers in Japanese they would rather see a English interface even though they read/write Japanese. Thanks Again, Erin
