charset problem - weird looking display names in email headers

[luedi]

hello there,

strangely rc sends some kind of character encoding preamble and messes with the german umlaut "ÃÃ,¼".

=?UTF-8?Q?Maximilian_v._L=C3=BCdinghausen_

instead of

Maximilian v. LÃÃ,¼dinghausen

does anyone know what s wrong with my config ? or is it a bug?
i'm really desprerate.
any idea would help!

I have the same problem,only with norwegian letters:

From: =?UTF-8?Q?Bj=C3=B8rnar=20Lib=C3=A6k=20

outgoing emails are not sending with a name in my idendity with accent, like "RenÃÃ,© Salamanca"

I have to comment out line 57 in /program/steps/mail/sendmail.inc

but now, the outgoing email does not have a sender's name

I've seen a lot of people having this problem. why isn't someone looking into this?

[rjsalamanca]

In this line on /program/steps/mail/sendmail.inc

$sent = smtp_mail($from, $a_recipients, $header_str, $msg_body);

Code Select Expand

$from = '[email protected]';

$header_str = 'MIME-Version: 1.0
0: [email][email protected][/email]
Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2006 18:32:19 -0400
From: =?UTF-8?Q?Ren=C3=A9_J._Salamanca_Vivas_<[email protected]>?=
To: [email][email protected][/email]
Subject: Sender

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=&quot;UTF-8&quot;

what is wrong with that header_str ?
