Mmh ... as far as I know Hotmail only supports 11 "european-based"
languages (latin character set), and 4 asian-based ones. So there're
only 11 posibilities how a Trash Can (in german: Papierkorb) could be
called ...
On the other hand everybody could set the "mailbox language" to english,
and there's no prob at all anymore ... ;)

Well, there'd be other options, too.
Like: "user has to edit one file" which is read by gotmail (eg.
gotmailrc).
