I think the question was how to make it NOT use the greek word for
Friday but instead show the english one.  Not how to show "On ....
wrote" to greek.

Try this

Make sure evolution is totaly dead (I think the command was named killev
back in 1.2).
run "LC_ALL=en_US evolution" (or use en_US.UTF-8).  Everything in
evolution will be in english.

But he really should upgrade.
