ReplyWithHeader being disabled due to locale issue

[svandi]

I'm running OS X 10.9.5 with Mail v. 7.3.

I've been running this successfully with Mavericks as well as earlier OS versions. Not sure of the change event, but I see that the plugin is being disabled on the startup of Mail. Here is the log data:

Any region/locale settings change happened recently in your machine? RWH is detecting english but some addition value comes too.

I see in the log like this:

5/12/15 5:40:01.639 PM Mail[12876]: WARNING :: ReplyWithHeader v4.9 is currently not supported in your Locale[ (null)(English) ] it may not work as expected, so disabling it.
Please contact plugin author for support (http://myjeeva.com/replywithheader).

Will verify at my end too.

The plugin is working now, but I'm not sure of the root cause. I have not made any region/locale setting changes, but while looking for these, I noticed the "Enable" checkbox in the Mail.app preference pane for RWH was not selected. This is not really surprising since the log shows it being disabled during startup. Nevertheless when I checked the box to enable it, the plugin works as expected. After a restart of Mail.app, the plugin is still working and enabled. The log now reads:

I disabled the plugin through the preference pane and restarted Mail.app. The original locale message no longer reproduces. When disabled, the log looks normal:

I'm not sure if checking the Enable box in Preferences reset some corrupted preference data or what. I did have a hard disk failure a few weeks ago and restored from a Time Machine backup. Possibly the backup I restored from had some preference corruption? At any rate, I'm happy it is working now!
