Typing 'locale' on my system returns:

LANG=el_GR
LC_CTYPE="el_GR"
LC_NUMERIC="el_GR"
LC_TIME="el_GR"
LC_COLLATE="el_GR"
LC_MONETARY="el_GR"
LC_MESSAGES="el_GR"
LC_PAPER="el_GR"
LC_NAME="el_GR"
LC_ADDRESS="el_GR"
LC_TELEPHONE="el_GR"
LC_MEASUREMENT="el_GR"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="el_GR"
LC_ALL=el_GR

On KnokiiSync, I have to use QTextCodec and specify "ISO8859-7" to see the 
entries (Names, addresses, notes) correctly. Only SMSs are "problematic", 
and that is with xgnokii, not with gnokii (which also shows names 
correctly) or knokiisync.
