Problems with Umlaut in subject

[bl]

Hi,

my problem is, when i sent an Email with special characters in subject ( Ö,Ä,Ü, or finish symbols) it will be replaced by some other crazy characters: ��
The problem exists always (also if i sent nur text or html messages.)

Please assist.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Is this in HTML or plain text?   

If it's in plain text, that would be a problem; it's based on system defined character sets. So you are limited by the systems you are sending to.

If it's HTML, you might lookup for markup code that is its equivalent by doing a BING search.

You might try setting the $charset variable in config.php.

Perhaps:

Code: [Select]

$charset = "UTF-8";
