This software allows Leopard users to retrieve the NSPreferredMailCharset feature, which was removed in a recent update. This enables the customization of the character set used in emails.
To address this gap, a utility called LeopardPreferredMailCharset was developed. It enables users to set the default character set in Leopard's Mail.app as they could in Tiger. Installing this utility is pretty easy. One can copy the file 'LeopardNSPreferredCharset.mailbundle' into either of the two directories - ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/ or /Library/Mail/Bundles/. Following that, enter the below commands in Terminal.app:
defaults write com.apple.mail EnableBundles -bool true
defaults write com.apple.mail BundleCompatibilityVersion 3
Now, launch Mail.app, and if the installation was successful, a console message 'PreferredCharset initialized.' will be displayed. With LeopardPreferredMailCharset, users can easily manage their email as per their preferences.
