Hello Andreas,

the color label strings are set up when you run claws for the first time (or
when ~/.claws-mail/clawsrc is created). Messages from then-active locale are
used, and are stored in mentioned file in [Common] section, as
"custom_colorlabelX" (where X is a number). Therefore currently set locale is
irrelevant.

My guess is that you first started Claws Mail with a non-UTF8 Swedish locale
sometimes in the past.

Hope this helps.
