Re: Swedish character problem after version 1.4.15

I see. So then there mbstring support is required in squirrelmail from
version 1.4.15 for all non english characters.

Perhaps that could be further explained in the "Administrators manual" and
in the configtest.php script.

Thanks for your support and quick response. Keep up the good work!
