THX and with best regards. > > -Émile > Dear List, THX again for all your explanations and remarks, although I'm not a TCL/TK expert :-( If I downgrade the TCL/TK used by exmh to : tcl-8.5.13-2.fc19.i686 tk-8.5.13-2.fc19.i686 then all is fine with utf-8 message contents since I can read iso10646 characters. But... folder table of contents display is ugly since some lines are completely missing or are partially erased :-( Depends of which charset was used for sending those messages ... If I give a try to tcl/tk version 8.6.0, I loose the iso10646 font display when reading utf-8 messages, too bad ! But FTOC display now looks pretty acceptable. Anyone out there did play with latest TCL/TK 8.6 version ? Did he/she get rid of this utf-8 trouble ? Best regards, -Émile
