You can compile the .mo file from .po by hand:

msgfmt da.po -o claws-mail.mo

then move/copy it to the appropriate place, eg.:

mv claws-mail.mo /usr/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/claws-mail.mo

The locale settings you can show by locale command, eg.:

locale
LANG=sk_SK.utf8
LC_CTYPE="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_TIME="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LC_MONETARY="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_PAPER="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_NAME="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="sk_SK.utf8"
LC_ALL=

(replace sk_SK by your locale code)

Beware, (in short) there can be different names of your locale, see here
my LANGUAGE variable:

echo $LANGUAGE
sk:cs

I have "sk" here, and not "sk_SK" as in locale output.

regards
