Open Issues
This chapter contains a list of the open issues for Solaris 2.6.
dtmail — Portion of Messages Following
LATIN-1 Characters not Displayed in Some
Locales (4073017)
The dtmail program for some locales will not display the remainder of a message
following any LATIN-1 character in that message. There is no warning that the
message is being truncated.
This problem occurs when LATIN-1 characters appear in either mail messages or
attachments for the Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese locales.
There also is a problem for the Korean locale when LATIN-1 characters appear in
mail messages, but not in attachments.
Workaround: Use the Open Windows mailtool rather than dtmail to avoid
having messages truncated following LATIN-1 characters.
dtmail — Multi-Byte Characters in a Message
Can Cause Mail Program to Die (4071959)
The dtmail program for the Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional
Chinese locales dies when it sends a message containing frequent alternations of
short strings of multi-byte and single-byte characters.
Workaround: Use the Open Windows mailtool or the mailx program rather than
dtmail.
