Very nice idea to use lng-file for personalization :cool:

I suppose you can use a separate lng-file (e.g. english-by-tamil.lng) to prevent it being overwritten by updates. This should just work like any localized version: simply use Tools - Preferences - General:Language - Details and select the new file. Yet you have to update this file every time the lng file is changed, i.e. due to a new feature.

You don't need to update everytime, you can outsource your language file.

opera:config#UserPrefs|LanguageFile setting is there.

But , obvioiusly if there is a major update, then merging of files is needed then.

Hi Tamil,
I have two questions:
1. How can I omit "Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/" from the emails I send using Opera?
2. How can I save receiving emails in a desired format such as "Web Archive"?
Thanks so much for your persistence in work!

I don't know. Please ask in Opera mail, chat and news forum.

Hi again Tamil
I dealt with another problem. While checking one of my mail accounts I face a "Long-time fetching process" as shown in the following image.

But for other accounts there is no percentage bar to receive mails!
Thanks
