There is absolutely no difference whether you use IE or Firefox for replies/forwards. The resulting mail sent out from Squirrelmail is broken and not conformant to RFC2046, since it is not allowed to mix different charsets in the same text/plain part. And I'm pretty sure it's also not allowed to declare HTML form as being ISO-8859-2 and then automatically insert ISO-8859-1, Windows-1250 or UTF-8 characters into it, since every browser must be confused from such messed HTML document. > You don't like SquirrelMail defaults and are trying to force other default > value Nope, I'm saying that $lossy_encoding should not be configurable and must be always on, otherwise the outgoing replied/forwarded emails don't conform to RFC2046. > You still can write Russian, Arabic or Chinese in ISO-8859-2 form. Yes, sure. But that's another situation - while in replies/forwards the Squirrelmail itself is reponsible for breaking standards, typing non-ISO-8859-2 characters is user responsibility. Anyway, I definitely believe the users should not be limited this way and therefore I fully support conversion of all translations into UTF-8 as soon as possible.
