So remember that after an upgrade of Thunderbird, one of the following two things can happen: a) Thunderbird relapses to English, and now there is an option to set the interface language. b) Thunderbird relapses to English, and you need to find another config editor hack to get German back. I'm happy that stupid old Sylpheed mailer always is in the language that $LC_* requests... ;-) > You have to have the language pack installed for this to work, though. Correct. I did install it before, but pure installing did not have an effect, and you could not "select it". > I'll still try Sylpheed ... It's been around for a while now, and I'm > curious. I'm using it for many years now. Personally, I find it convenient and easy to use. It's a nice consensus of "novice-friendly" and "professional". For example, it doesn't render HTML mails (which I find very useful), it gets the reply references right, you can save all attachments at once, and it uses the classic "three fields" layout (tree, list, message). Additionally, there's Sylpheed-Claws / Claws-Mail (no idea how they call it today) with extended functionality. Furthermore, you could try Evolution for a more bloatet... erm, feature-rich program. ;-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
