Hello Tomas Now you see my first mail with SquirrelMail written, which has the German User Interface. :-) The disabling on the Gettext-Extension in php.ini was the solution. My server is fast enough, so i have no problems with the slower internal gettext functions. In a next version of XAMPP with a newer PHP-Version i'll try again with the Gettext-function of php.
