Yes, I agree.  We'd have to create a new q-file entry with "charset" or 
"language" or something.  Then notify would use that information to use 
correct language in the e-mail notification.  I'm not ready to go that 
far myself, though.

The patch does default to the charset used on the system, I believe.

The truth is that I put CHARSET into config.cache for the shared purpose 
between notify and faxrcvd.  In a fax-receive scenario we don't have any 
client-submitted information to go on, and so the administrator would 
set the users' charset in FaxDispatch.

So it's a small step towards better internationalization.  Still there's 
a log way to go.

If there are enough people interested in getting the fax-received and 
delivery notifications translated into something other than english 
please let me know.  I can produce a library of english texts that are 
used in notify and faxrcvd, and if you are willing to translate those 
let me know, and I'll try to move the ball forward on this a bit more.

Thanks,

Lee.
