Question installing fonts on UNIX
I am fairly new to UNIX, and my company has a UNIX based Firewall with a spam filter configured on the Firewall. I have been able to pick up on most of the commands needed for administration purposes, but I have come into a problem when a Korean contractor tries to send my company an e-mail. The Korean characters in her name are considered spam by the spam filter. I was thinking that I needed to add additional fonts to the firewall because I had another contractor from the same domain send out an e-mail who didnt have any Korean characters and it came through just fine. Any help on how to install the additional fonts? And where to obtain the additional fonts?

This would be an issue with your locale, not fonts. Are you sure it's getting rejects because of the encoding and not due to an address issue?

What is your locale set to on the firewall?

As for adding more fonts to the box, you would need to add more info, such as the OS of the box.
