Created attachment 2316 [details] Message when Compose is hit and BG dic is not in the folder and not selected I added the bg_BG.aff and bg_BG.dic as described in https://www.claws-mail.org/win32/dictionaries.php The dictionary doesn't appear in the list in the Preferences windows. Then I added it in C:\Program Files\Claws Mail\share\enchant\myspell instead because that did the job in 3.18.0. Now the dictionary appears in the list but when I hit Compose button Claws closes with: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: claws-mail.exe Application Version: 4.1.1.0 Application Timestamp: 00000000 Fault Module Name: libglib-2.0-0.dll Fault Module Version: 2.72.4.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0000000000017294 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1026 Additional Information 1: de83 Additional Information 2: de83ea2e0bac657dc83b2a5464de3fa5 Additional Information 3: bed2 Additional Information 4: bed205d97f58d7b5c9813b49a9430c2d Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288&clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\Windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt I tried to change the bg_BG.aff and bg_BG.dic encodings to UTF-8 because en_US.aff and en_US.dic have this encoding but this doesn't help. Interesting fact is that when I remove the BG dictionary and in Preferences window other dictionaries are selected when I click the Compose button the message in the attachment appears
I'm sorry! I did a mistake in the explanation. I fist added the files in C:\Program Files\Claws Mail\share\enchant\myspell It didn't appear in the list of dictionaries an the I added the files in C:\Program Files\Claws Mail\share\enchant\hunspell
Out of curiosity, I checked now and there was no problem. What I did: - I added the Bulgarian dictionary in my LibreOfficeDev 7.4.x existing install - I simply copied the files bg_BG.aff and bg_BG.dic from C:\Program Files\LibreOfficeDev 7\share\extensions\dict-bg to C:\Program Files\Claws Mail\share\enchant\hunspell - I made a new message in Claws Mail and selected bg_BG dictionary from the available options - I entered a random phrase copied from bg.wikipedia.org: === Уикипедия ви поздравява с настъпилите празници и ви пожелава една изпълнена с надежда и оптимизъм 2022 година, в която вярата в силата на знанията, в образованието и науката и във вътрешния ни стремеж към прогрес и благоденствие за всяко човешко същество ще помогне животът на всички ни да бъде по-добър, по-светъл и по-радостен! === - except that the first word (Уикипедия) appears red, nothing strange happened - I send the test message successfully - I received the message successfully Claws Mail 4.1.1 on Windows 8.1 (x64) here. ??

(In reply to Cristian Secară from comment #2) > Claws Mail 4.1.1 on Windows 8.1 (x64) here. I forgot to mention, just in case (but I am sure this is totally irrelevant for the discussion here): my system locale is set to Romanian, Claws Mail UI also in Romanian, but I also retook the test with Claws Mail started with ru interface (with 'set lang=ru'), as bg does not seem to be available: all tests performed equally well, without any trouble. I suggest to drop/trash the bg dictionary from that OpenOffice page, since it is a prehistoric version with cp1251 8-bit encoding and use the one from LibreOffice, which is Unicode UTF-8 native: https://github.com/LibreOffice/dictionaries/tree/master/bg_BG Cristi
Thank you Cristi! The issue I described happened while I was following the instructions opened when I followed the link for additional dictionaries in 4.1.1 Preferences menu. Maybe some update is needed there. I got the files from the place you suggested and now Claws doesn't crash. It doesn't work well either though. These words appear in red: Уикипедия ви една изпълнена с надежда и на знанията, в образованието към прогрес благоденствие за на всички по Except "Уикипедия" which is a name and probably the dictionary doesn't know it all of the rest are correct. I attached the screenshot. Are the bg_BG.aff and bg_BG.dic files you are using the same as on https://github.com/LibreOffice/dictionaries/tree/master/bg_BG ? Best Regards Ivo
