Windows Live Mail Handles Japanese Messages Transmit & Receive

[D. Spencer Hines]

A Good Point For WLM:

WLM does handle JAPANESE messages -- email and newsgroups -- just as OE
does -- in XP.

One must first install the Japanese Language Support files, of course -- and
Japanese fonts support.

Then one can read Japanese on the web, receive, compose and transmit
Japanese emails -- and read and send in Japanese newsgroups.

I understand this is impossible in Vista without buying some sort of
Language Pack, and even then there are severe limitations -- or is that not
correct?

If it's true -- that is a functionality that exists in XP that has been
REMOVED in Vista.

Does OUTLOOK have these capabilities to handle Japanese language material,
without purchasing anything else -- just downloading the Japanese Support
files?

Why in heaven did you crosspost all this to so many newsgroups.

MUI. You know what that means. For the rest some others will answer. Next time D
Spencer please post issues and questions for Outlook separately to the Outlook (OL)
newsgroup

 

[D. Spencer Hines]

My post, if you actually read it, involves these FOUR newsgroups.

Outlook can handle Japanese and other multibyte characters fine, as long
as you run it in Unicode Mode (and as long as the correct encoding is
specified).

Thanks...

Good To Know.

Even using Vista and no "Language Pack"?

Send & Receive.

 

[Pat Willener]

Of course the appropriate language support (fonts) must be installed.

 

[D. Spencer Hines]

Understood.
