Foxmail tips for sending BIG5 code messages

With Foxmail, the content of the message is written in the Write Mail window, and then the Gb→big5 command in the character Conversion submenu of the Mail menu converts the content and subject of the message to BIG5 code (the converted message appears garbled). Once the conversion is complete, we can send the message out again.

This method, Foxmail will not only change the display state of the message, it will also directly to the Chinese character of the internal code conversion, the converted message within the code into a BIG5 code, so as to ensure the BIG5 code users to read correctly. In addition, this function of Foxmail only converts message content and themes, however, the recipient and sender names are not converted to BIG5 codes, so the characters in the recipients and Senders columns will appear garbled in messages received by recipients. It is recommended that you use English to identify recipients and senders in messages to BIG5 users .

Another method is to set the current character set to "Big5 (Traditional Chinese)" through the "set character set" of the "Options" menu when writing a message.
