Hello all,


I am receiving some Unicode-encoded e-mails which look garbled
because Seamonkey always try to display them with Western
encoding in the first place, so I always have to manually change
the Text Encoding option for every Unicode e-mail I read.

In the "Text Encoding - Message Display" preferences setting I
tried both the "Default for current locale" and the "Other
(including Western European)" but none gets what I need (to force
opening every e-mail in Unicode viewing mode).

Can anybody help ? My Seamonkey version is 2.49.4, language UK
English and my OS is Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, language US English.


Thanks in advance,


Rubens
Problem solved.

Procedure used:

1- Enter about:config

2- Filter for string "UTF-8"

3- Delete all other pagecodes present in the listed fields
(example: 1252)

Done !

Comment: It looked like years ago, the fields were filled in with
my original choice (Western), but now there was no way to revert
that selection using the normal commands available in the Edit ->
Preferences menu.

Rubens, in my Linux SM 2.49.1, if I enter "Edit" -> "Preferences" and select "Appearance" -> "Fonts", I can see that I have the "Western" font selected. And then I get to check all sorts of Typefaces.

Is it different for you??

this "solution" doesn't make much sense?   "1- Enter about:config"
where/what do you mean by this, enter the file? a hidded menu? maybe
a console somewhere..

Dave, if you enter "about:config" (without the double quotes) in the addressbar and accept the warning, you get to see all sorts of Preferences, which you can alter (remembering the Warning which you previously accepted) to change how SeaMonkey appears.
