Hallo NG.

Within Framework 1.1 we send SMTP-mails the following way

System.Web.MailMessage mail = new System.Web.MailMessage();
mail.BodyFormat = System.Web.MailFormat.Text;
mail.BodyEncoding = Encoding.UTF8;
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mail);

If I now put asian special characters in Subject AND Body, then

View with Outlook-Express: characters are correctly diplayed.
View with Outlook: only Body is correct.
View with Lotus: Body and Subject correct displayed.

Am I missing some settings - and which one - so Outlook displays the
characters correctly, or is Outlook setup in a wrong way?


Regards,

I don't get your point.

Why does Outlook handle UTF-8 in a different way then Outlook-Express?
Come on MS-guys.

Flemming,

Did you try that UrlEncode, a very active regular in this newsgroup told me
that my sample was not complete, he has surounded it completely with
UrlEncode. He is from Austria, you are maybe a Scandinavian, I am Dutch we
don't have characters not in the base character set. (We have a connected ij
but that is in my Outlook as well showed connected, I don't know how that is
presented in yours). As well do we use some accents, but that is in a mail
seldom seen important here.
