Hi.

I am currently using the built-in e-mail client for the N800. One major issue I have with the software is that it doesn't seem to handle any charset other than UTF-8.

I get mail written in Japanese all the time. Some of them are in UTF-8 (like when composed via Evolution), but most of them are in Shift-JIS, which is the most popular charset used in Japan. Mail written in Shift-JIS gets garbled when opened with the build-in e-mail client.

Is there any solution to this problem? I have Japanese fonts and input method editor installed so viewing Japanese web sites and composing e-mail in Japanese are no issues.

TIA,
Dai

I'd pretty much want to know how to extend Opera/Zilla language support too for Arabic enabled websites.

Oh - and if anyone happens to know whether Opera on the Wii can be extended for multilingual support, let me know

Problem solved!

All I had to do was re-install the component called "ossoemail-jp." It had been installed as part of the Japanese support package, but the symlink created by it was messed up somehow when other packages were installed. Now I'm a happy camper!
