Not necessarily.

My GERMAN (!) version of _this_ mail client is able to use 'Re:' instead of
AW!
How did I do this, can I do magic? ;) No, I can't. ;)

My OE has version 5.50.4522.1200 and I used this:

<For German-speaking people only!>
Um englische Kopfzeilen in OE zu ermöglichen und auf das lästige (und
proprietäre) 'AW:' loszuweden, muss man folgende Einstellung vornehmen:

Extras -> Optionen -> Senden -> Internationale Einstellungen -> Englische
Kopfzeilen beim Antworten auf Nachrichten verwenden

</For German-speaking People only!>

That's it ...
