The default encoding method is "unicide" that should allow to display most of the language characters
on the same page.
By clicking on a subject link, you can see the content of each message.
The display will be automatically adapted to the encoding method specified in the message header.
Otherwise the default encoding method, "unicode" will be used. Nevertheless,
many messages are circulating in the internet without specifying any encoding method.

Choose the desired language encoding method in the menu, then click on "Encoding" button.
Please note that as long as you don't click on "Encoding" button, you choice should not be validated.
Click on "Compose" button from the message header list after having selected the correct encoding method like above.

Click on "Delete" button, then confirm your selection by logging out from your mail account.
Otherwise click on "List" button to return back.
