On Outlook Express 5
[Tools] - [Options] - [Read] - [Fonts] -
(Unicode) - {Select appropriate fonts} - {Set as Default}
- then -
[Tools] - [Options] - [Read] - [International Settings] -
{Check the box marked 'Use default encoding for all...'}
This seems to work-around the distressing practice of the
program automatically replying to senders in the sender's
default rather than the user's preference.
Possibly there are other settings under the [Send] and/or
[Compose] tabs that might also have to be adjusted. On this
system, the 'reply to senders using the senders format' field
was unchecked, yet my replies to earlier message in the thread
were being sent as "Thai (Windows)".
Best regards,
