We have not heard about similar issue so would like to duplicate your problem.

Let me try to repeat what you have done.

  • create a new message on Ubuntu and copy Chinese characters from MS Excel.

  • you cannot read Chinese there.

How are you using MS Excel on Ubuntu?

Thank you.

Subject: Inbox mail “OLE” content display problem

I open a mail in my Lotus Notes Client Inbox, this mail(Inbox) is send by other people who using Windows OS.& This mail contains content pasted from MS-Excel.I got this mail from Domino Server. So some part of this mail content which is pasted from MS-EXCEL come out. In this case, the pasted content is known as “OLE” in which the chinese characters can not be displayed correctly when I open with Lotus notes 8.5 beta2. Also the same problem comes out while using OpenOffice.org 3.0 writer(OOO300m9,build:9358) which opens MS-Office “OLE” content(Ubuntu 8.04 hardy). I think maybe it’s due to the same reason. for your ref. Thanks a lot!
