Fix problems with RS mail translations from RS Joomla.

I'm just installing the RS Joomla RS mail component and already I have found some errors with translations and language files. Here are some tips on editing/fixing them.

Note these tips are for Joomla 1.7, other versions may differ.
*Important: In this guide you will be editing RS Mail configuration files. DO NOT use and spaces when changing things, insted use "_" between words. Example; type "put_your_email_here" not "put your email here".

First a common question answered:
How do you change the " This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it " placeholder text that appears in the RS mail module on the front page.

1. Find and edit the file: /language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_rsmail.ini  
2. Change to whatever you want, the line: RSM_YOUR_EMAIL=" This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it "

If you find the placeholder text is strange in another language (as I found with Spanish) or you simply want to change it:

1. Find and edit the equivalent file to: /language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_rsmail.ini  --(for example, in Spanish that is: language/es-ES/es-ES.mod_rsmail.ini)
2. Change to whatever you want, the line: RSM_YOUR_EMAIL=" This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it "

*NOTE if it is NOT THERE, just add it!, simply copy and past it from this page and change it how you wish:

RSM_YOUR_EMAIL=" This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it "

Easy.

If you follow these steps correctly the RS Mail module should correctly display the placeholder text you want on the front page of you Joomla install. Make a comment!
