1018.0. "Language problem" by nova05.vbo.dec.com::BERGER () Mon Apr 21 1997 17:01

	Hi there

I've installed Exchange Server 5.0 (US version) on NT 4.0 (US 
version) to do some testing, and the thing has decided to put some 
strings in French, mainly stuff in the SMTP logs, and stuff in users' 
mailboxes. For example from the Exchange client I see a "bo�te aux 
lettres" instead of a "mailbox".

The server is set-up with "French" in Control Panel->Regional 
Settings (mainly to get the currency and date display "right") but 
otherwise as I said everything is in English. How can I convince 
Exchange to be "all-English" ?

Thanks

I think that the first client that connects to a mailbox sets its name with its
language ("Boite a lettre" in French "Casella Postale" in Italian), as well as
the names of default folders (Inbox, Outbox, etc). After that, also from an
English client you see the French/Italian names. I don't think it's possible to
change those names.
