Hello!

Is there an solution available for the following problem:

Received mails in Outlook 2007 are displayed without the German Umlaute.
Mails are in UTF-8 coding and Outlook is also configured to UTF-8. But to
display the Umlaute I have to switch the coding to something else than UTF-8
and then back to UTF-8 again. After this action all Umlaute are displayed
correctly again. This seems to be a rendering bug in Outlook 2007 respective
Word 2007.

It is described by other users here (German language):

Thanks in advance.


Bye Oliver

I am using the same PST that I've been using with Outlook 2003. But I didn't
have these problems in OL2003! IIRC my PST was created with OL2003 too so it
should be unicode.
