Shoaib Bagdadi	Monday 27 September 2010 6:42:48 am I have a problem with umlauts that I receive in my email. They are missing. What could be the problem ? My file is utf-without bom. The extension reads a template(tpl) file which is saved in utf-without bom and sends email. The umlauts that someone types in textarea are not coming in email. Thanks for your help in advance

If you are using ezComponents within your extension to create and send emails, take a look here: http://ezcomponents.org/docs/tutorials/Mail#character-encoding Standard ezPublish extensions and the build in mail library (eZP...Mail...something) is able to send german umlauts without any modifications. So here the problem might exist somewhere else. Let us know, Chris Hannover, Germany eZ-Certified http://auth.ez.no/certification/verify/395613

Hy,

Standard ezPublish extensions and the build in mail library (eZP...Mail...something) is able to send german umlauts without any modifications. So here the problem might exist somewhere else.
