While this works: admin-> mail -s Hello -E 'set sendmail=sendmail:/home/admin/bin/sendmail' --content-type=text/plain 'CC <s...@example.com>' < text
Following does not work: admin-> mail -s Hello -E 'set sendmail=sendmail:/home/admin/bin/sendmail' --content-type=text/plain 'ČC <s...@example.com>' < text mail: Cannot parse address `ČC <s...@example.com>': Malformed email address Am I supposed to convert the name for email address myself to RFC 2047 string? Following does work: mail -s Hello -E 'set sendmail=sendmail:/home/admin/bin/sendmail' --content-type=text/plain "=?utf-8?Q?=C4=8C?= <s...@example.com>" < text But maybe mailutils shall handle that itself to RFC 2047. I think that subject line also has to be prepared similarly, maybe not same RFC, maybe not, I have forgotten, but I will find it. I think that user should be able to enter UTF-8 as for email name and that such should be converted rather by mailutils. Jean
