I did 'rm ~/GNUStep/' before running newly installed GNUMail and before
I start X, to make sure newly compiled GNUMail and basic packages have
a clean start environment. So I think it's not importing anything old.

I have set locale to LANG=en_US before I start X. I do this because I am
aware there was many I18N/L10N bugs in GNUStep in general, as I
experienced 1 year ago when I try to run GNUStep the 3rd time to be my
alternative desktop (given up because I cannot solve all Chinese
related problem on my own nor have time to).

I try to make GNUStep as my alternative/default desktop every
year and I gave up 3 times in last 3 years because of bugs. I'd really
like the concept and UI/idea of GNUStep but it's the overwhelming bugs
that holds my horse (or is it just me?). For example yesterday when
I use Ubuntu's GNUStep, it crashed "cleanly" (i.e. all GNUStep
application suddenly quit the same time as if they were slaughtered,
including GWorkspace and TextEdit), making me lost my work in the
middle.
