international characters in email subject line

[rubymeng2002]

Can anybody tell me how to display chinese in the subject field of
MS Outlook 2003? I configed IME in " Regional and Language" , Mail
body can display chinese, but subject field seems not to work on
chinese.


Thank

Well, like I said Outlook does not support this -- it will

only use the

default system code page (b.k.a. CP_ACP) for subject lines and

any other

part of the header.

My email client is outlook which does support international

character

sets. I can send/recieve non-ascii encoded body but not the

subject line.

BTW, MS OE doesn't support it while Mozilla does support it.

This is simply not true! I know we all like to bash MS from

time to time,

but people really get far too carried away. I don't know if the

above is

true about Outlook (as my installation is stuffed as far as e-

mail goes), but

it is NOT TRUE about Outlook Express. OE encodes the subject

line with the

same encoding as the body and often (?) the From header as well.

I stand corrected(thank you for correcting me). It's possible to

enter

whatever script supported by IMEs installed on your system in both
Subject(and other headers) and body of the message. However, what
I wrote about the display of the headers in scripts NOT supported
by the default system code page still stands. For instance, MS
OE cannot display Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Russian headers under
English/French/Spanish/Italian/German MS-Windows in _the message

*list*

display pane_, which Mozilla can. MS OE can display those headers

for

individual messages.), though.
Not having checked out MS OE for a while, I was a bit confused

what is

possible and what is not. Anyway, my comment and michka's have

*nothing*

to do with MS bashing. I was just giving what I believed to be

facts,

one of which was not true as it turned out. Please, note that

Michael

(michka) Kaplan, I guess is, one of the last persons on this list

to say

something not true just to make MS look bad. Of course, by this

I'm not

implying by any means that there are some people who would do

that on

this list.
