Outlook (only) keeps switching languages in the message editor.

Hello,

One of our users has a problem with the language-settings in Outlook.

The PC language has been installed as with an EN locale but the user
has added FR and set it to be the default.

When they open a new message in Outlook, the locale switches
immediately switches back to EN for the message text. They can change
it to FR on a per-message basis for the message text; however, the
locale refuses to change when they click on the subject field.

All the other Office applciation, e.g., Word, use FR without problems.
The problem is only with Outlook.

It's an Ex5.5 server (don't think that matters) and we can reproduce
the problem on different PCs using either Outlook XP/2002 or 2003.
We've tried switching to Plain Text, unchecking "use Word as message
editor" and running Outlook /resetfoldernames (even though the folder
names are ok) to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

- Alan.
