Japanese fonts in lists

[Kevin M Fitzgerald]

I receive emails from japan with japanese in the subject line, however, the
japanese is garbled (as though the wrong encoding is being used). I tried
clicking the japanese encoding from the format menu, and even switching my
list font in the preferences to a japanese font, but still get the gibberish
in the subject/name fields of the list views. The body text is readable
though.

Argh, forget it again. Turns out it's a problem on the sender's side.
