Post by OpinicusPost by Ralph FoxI use the Unicode UTF-8 codepage as well as ANSI (Windows-1252),
because the world has long since moved to Unicode and Windows-1252
is limited to 219 characters.
Under Tools > Options > Languages "UTF-8" is not one of the Code Page
choices. Where else might that setting be?
To make "UTF-8" appear as one of the one of the Code Page choices, all
you would need do is to place a suitable *.COD file in the Agent program
folder (i.e., in the folder where agent.exe is). The Code Page choices
correspond to those *.COD files in the Agent program folder which are
configured to be code pages.
Help >> Index >> Codepage
Help >> Index >> COD files
If you also want the UTF-8 code page to display properly in plain text
message bodies but you do not need typing nor cut/copy/paste with the
UTF-8 code page, then provided you are running Windows 10.1903 or later
you can do this with configuration in Agent:

If you want the UTF-8 code page to display properly in message bodies,
typing international characters to work properly in the compose window,
and cut/copy/paste to work properly, then install the AgtEx extension
in Agent. (This works even when you are not running Windows 10.1903 or
later.)
