We are aware of the community's desire for multi-language support in Cerb4. UTF-8 translations are high on the developers' priority list but unfortunately I can't give you an estimated time. We have an open feature request for it with a lot of votes and customers watching besides yourself. Rest assured the moment there's any progress, this page will be updated.

So please bookmark that URL.

Just adding another request for utf8 support. Seems like a great system but without utf8 support we can't use it over here in Sweden.

I'm also wondering, how are you approaching this development wise? For us the primary thing is to be able to receive, read and send email in utf8, translating the system is not that important. What are your priorities?

What are your priorities?
Oh, getting the character support in definitely comes before extracting the strings. Once the charsupport is done, the string extraction is just grunt work, and the translations are simply dependent on a human translator.

Cerberus team recently implemented full utf-8 support which opened the way to using Turkish character sets with Cerberus.

However unfortunately the current php releases (particularly the mbstring extension of php) do not support one of the major character sets (namely windows-1254).

I've made a small patch to the parser.php and attached it to this post. Using this attached parser.php cerberus can decode windows-1254 e-mails. This is a simple patch just making sure windows-1254 e-mails are encoded as if they were iso-8859-9.

Hope this helps to all Turkish users.
