Re: [SM-USERS] Using Japanese characters in mail

[David L. <dle...@ca...>]

Sonal,

JIS encoding (iso-2022-jp) is the most commonly-used encoding scheme in 
Japan. Your Word, Excel, IE, or any other application should easily be 
able to handle it. Check the documentation of your application for details.

As for squirrel, I am not an expert, but I did make a few changes to my 
php.ini file as well as my config.php file. Check out the related 
entries and you should (hopefully) be able to figure it out.


Otherwise, I guess you'll have to wait for some squirrel expert to help 
you out.


Good luck!

Dave
