It actually works in practice.

However, you need to have the relevant fonts installed you your system and
those little squares indicate you don't.  I don't use kmail myself.  I use
thunderbird, but I fired kmail up on my system and what I typed is what I see.

There is, however, one problem with KDE (I've filed a bugzilla) is that it
is missing some characters from "Simplified Chinese".

So, you need to install support for other languages.
