Maybe I asked wrong question. OK, does anybody use fts_squat for non-English emails? Can you find emails by query of 2 WORDS - "planet Earth"? On my system it works only when both words are from latin alphabet, otherwise returns nothing. For latin, it finds even emails having both lating and russian letters (UTF-8 encoding). For non-latin, query must consist of 1 word only. 

Thanks for any ideas.
