Description

hello,

I have a problem when i try to change utf-8 charset to iso-8859-2. I need some special characters for hungarian language, but utf-8 not supported with other webmails in hungary, and i cant change to charset in all page of webmail to iso...

a tryed to modify /program/include/main.inc :

if (!isset($rcube_languages[$lang]))

$lang = 'hu';

language has special charset configured
if (isset($rcube_charsets[$lang]))

$charset = $rcube_charsets[$lang];

else

$charset = 'ISO-8859-2';

and index.php... but the success not fully .. some page use iso.. others like utf8..

outgoing messages like iso, but incomings only with utf8.. :(

I have absolutly no idea..

I cant see answer in faq,google, etc..

I very like roundcube so i hope anybody can help me...

BW,

Kevifilu

I don't see any reason not to use UTF-8. Not a bug.

And did you consider that it might be a problem of "the other webmail" failing to handle UTF-8 mails? When I send a message from RoundCube, it shows up well in my mail clients, in GMX and in GMail. Sorry, I can't help you with that...

I know, the problem with other webmail..yes gmail works fine. But hotmail and hungarian freemail not. Roundcube is a very good and nice webmail so i hope in the future every webmailes will be like utf8:) thx 4 help and so sry 4 stupid question.

Try to add the following tag to the file skins/default/templates/compose.inc

<roundcube:object name="charsetSelector" />

This should give you a drop-down menu where you can select the charset which is used when sending a message. We removed this in the latest release but it should still work.

The selection defaults to UTF-8 but we could make it configurabale in future versions.
