It can display email written in unicode because it converts unicode to 
the current locale (afaik). It can't display japanese and accented 
chars at the same time.
I just tried 0.8.9claws31-1.  Eg, the Nihongo below will show up 
correctly if sylpheed-claws is started with ja_JP.eucjp and the 
encoding is set to Japanese, but the accented chars won't, even if you 
change to central-european or western. I had to restart in a non-jp 
locale to get the accented chars displayed properly, but then the 
Japanese is just mojibake. If anyone can display the stuff below 
properly, then I'm all ears.

Here it is. This mail is UTF-8, composed with balsa 2.0 which handles 
it just fine. Nerdscape 4.7 can  properly display it also (that's why I 
still use it)
