Why do (Russian) characters in some received emails change when reading in David InfoCenter?
- by waszkiewicz
I'm using David InfoCenter as email Software, and I have troubles with some of my emails in Russian. It's only a few letters, in some emails (sent from different people), like for example the "R" ("P" in russian) will be shown as a "T". In other emails in Russian, the problem doesn't appear. Isn't it strange? Does anyone had the same problem already and found where it came from?
When I transmit that email to an external mailbox (internet email account), it's even worse, and gives me symbols instead of all Russian letters...
The default encoding was "Russian (ISO)", I changed it to "Russian (Windows)", but same problem. Another weird reaction is when I write an intern email and name it TEST in Russian (????), with ???? in the text window, it changes the title to "Oano"? But the content stays in Russian...
With Mailinator I got the following, for message and subject "????":
Subject: ????
