Re: w3m can't show html mail with charset: gb2312
I always work in Chinese.
I don't know what w3m is, is it a html viewer?
I can't work well with lynx neither, the characters also go to garbled
on my screen. Some one with the locale as zh_CN.GBK can see it properly.
But I prefer the UTF-8 locale, thus, I just abandoned lynx and started to
use firefox to read the html styled messages. In it, just select the
correct code system(gbk, gb2312, or gb18030), then it will work.
