It is for *users* but not for system daemons. There in no policy on how to define the locale system-wide for daemons (including cron) > So mails are not readable with thunderbird on another computer. Most system e-mails will not include any UTF-8 characters and should be plain ASCII. What messages don't you see correctly? > In my humble opinion, this is a bug, not a missing feature. If there are cron tasks that are depending on this "feature" then the bug is in the task. Cron has historically not been able to send anything else besides non-ASCII chars in e-mail so tasks should not depend on this for their messages. I will fix this bug, but will not do it before the etch release as it would not get into testing anyway. Regards Javie
