Cool. Thanks Scott. It must be everyone else that's wrong :) - they all have japanese encoding coming from Outlook by default or something...

It's still going on. Pretty much every email I receive from an Exchange/Outlook address are picked up as having Japanese or Chinese character encoding. Not sure why, but every time I reply I have to change the character encoding to Western. It's getting to be pretty tiresome. If it's a local problem, I'd be interested in fixing it... or hearing if anyone else is encountering this problem.

The messages are coming from both inside our school (and a common exchange server) and external. Even replies through the iPhone Mail.app are getting weird encoding assigned to them. Maybe everyone else is just dumb and unaware of their charset config.

Normally with replying. I talked to a colleague using Outlook (I work at a college) and Windows was asking him to install the language pack.

That makes sense. It's not a problem for me, it's more recipients of the replies. But I understand what's going on there.

Random Character Encoding Msg by Msg

For some reason my character encoding seems to randomly change on its own. Is that just something that happens when receiving email from other clients (such as Outlook)? It's really odd. Sometimes it's Chinese (Big5), sometimes something else.

And a clarification, as I'm getting into it, it only seems to be replies in the thread view. If I expand the conversation in the main email list, I can select the individual messages and read them. (That means if it's the first reply, I can't expand anything and can't read the message until I get a second reply).

No Message Content in Conversation View?

New conversations don't show the message body text.

Say I send and email. When I get a reply and expand the newest message, none of the body text appears - just a white space. If I expand my own previous message, the text shows up.

If I go to the View menu and change the 'Message Body As' settings, the message will show up. But if I go to a different conversation, the same problem occurs. If I switch back to the original thread, it's right back to not showing.

It just happened after the b8 update. Had not problems previously.
