However, when I go to Preferences → Display → Formatting → Fonts & Colors: Advanced. I want to set the default Text Encoding for incoming mails to Turkish (ISO-8859-9). TB 78 had the menu under advanced font settings. But I cannot find the settings to change the text encoding and solve the problem. At the bottom of the next window, under 'Text Encoding' you can select the default encoding.
#THUNDERBIRD TEXT ENCODING HOW TO#
I do not know how to access "View -> character encoding".I am using Ubuntu 19.10 and Thunderbird 68.4.1 (64-bit). Since I updated to TB v.91.x from v78.14.0, I noticed that some emails show those wrong characters like this, when they should been shown > Ç, É, À, Í, Ó, Ã, ª, etc. Open Thunderbird ToolsOptionsDisplayForm atting Under Fonts & Colours, click on Advanced. However, when I send the same email from my Yahoo! account on Thunderbird to my Yahoo! address, the special characters are displayed incorrectly as ?, regardless of whether I open the email online or using Thunderbird. We can fix the display auto detection by skipping the message window parts. What do those words mean Right Encoding is added menu that set the character set on the context menu (mouse right-click) on Firefox and Thunderbird. It does not solve the problem to change the encoding in "View -> text encoding" when a specific email is open After bug 1704749 the 'Repair Text Encoding' menu item will not do anything, since assigning the magic auto charset to the message window charset throws (this was already the case with the 'Automatic' charset item before). encoded-word: An encoded-word may not be more than 75 characters long, including charset, encoding, encoded text, and delimiters. Simply, what is Right Encoding and Text Encoding. I do not know how to access "View -> character encoding". It did not solve the problem to tick or untick "When possible, use the default text encoding in replies"
My current Thunderbird settings: Tools -> Options -> Display -> Advanced -> Text Encoding outgoing mail = Unicode (UTF-8), Incoming mail = Unicode (UTF-8).Ībout:config -> mailnews.force_charset_override = default / false I therefore conclude that the problem needs to be resolved within Thunderbird, most likely in an "outgoing mail" encoding setting. However, when I send the same email from my Yahoo! account on Thunderbird to my Yahoo! address, the special characters are displayed incorrectly as ?, regardless of whether I open the email online or using Thunderbird. In addition, when I send email from Yahoo! online to my Yahoo! account on Thunderbird (52.6.0), the special charcters are displayed correctly. When I send and receive email from Yahoo! online, my special characters (such as German umlauts) are displayed correctly.
