Hi Pete! Thanks for your interest.
In fact I'm not sure that calling characters in Turkish language as non-unicode is correct. Please forgive any wrong information I gave. I've set any option (in fact there are 2, one in mail prefs., other in composer prefs.) in Edit->Preferences dialog as "ISO-8859-9 Turkish". If I set view -> character encoding to "ISO-8859-9 Turkish" also, then message body becomes unreadible. So I leave it set as Default. If the problem were with the mails I receive, then it wouldn't be that much bother, but it's with the mails I send to other people, so it would be awkward to ask them to rename the attachments as they receive :/. So is Evolution useless in this?
