#7689: [mail_daemon] Mail menu in deskbar is not localized

Comment (by taos):
Okay, so I tried to get rid of MDR_DIALECT_CHOICE. Here is a patch
("mail_daemon.patch") that replaces it with B_TRANSLATE and adds
DoCatalogs to the Jamfile. The old Japanese translation from the source
code is attached ("Old_Japanese_translation.txt").
Mail_daemon can be compiled without errors or warnings and works - as far
as I can tell - as expected.
However, to make things easier for translators on HTA, I would like to use
more complete strings (e.g. {{{B_TRANSLATE("%d new messages for %s\n")}}}
instead of {{{fAlertString << numMessages << B_TRANSLATE(" new
messages");}}} and {{{fAlertString << B_TRANSLATE(" for ") <<
msg->FindString("name") << '\n';}}}. Unfortunately, I'm new to programming
and don't know (yet) how to implement this correctly (more research
needed).
