Hello Horde Team,

First of all, thanks for making such a functional and easy to use
interface.  Great so far, except...

I work in a company that does international business mostly with Japan,
but also with Korea and China.

The Horde webmail interface in general handles Japanese well except:

1) Japanese in the "Subject" line of a new email is translated to garble. 
I expect that the subject line isn't set to handle character sets outside
of Western texts.

2) Some of the interface texts are set to Japanese (Shift-JIS) while
others are set to Japanese (ISO-2022-JP), and still others to Japanese
(EUC-JP).  These encodings do not display properly at the same time
because the web page can only be set to one encoding at a time.  (See
attachment.)

If anyone can fix this, I would be extremely pleased.
