You're right Paul,
But some messages that i have problems, are messages that i send in my linux console, and no charset information is going on it.
For example:

echo "ola olá teste ç çãõ"|mail -s "ola olá teste ç çãõ" [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The values in the message body apear ok, but in the subject no, in the subject all special chars are transleted to "???".

default_msg_encoding:

*should* be the same as the encoding used by your outlook clients (the ones
sending the messages with 8bit headers)

encoding:

must be the same as the encoding of the database.

In your case it's the first that's biting you (default_msg_encoding).

Most of your outlook clients that are sending 8bit headers in messages are
probably using windows-1250 or latin-1 charsets, *not* utf8.

Ah, sorry Paul/Aaron,

The screenshots are without:
encoding             = utf8
default_msg_encoding = utf8

and with the database in Latin1 charset:

After i added this do dbmail.conf and changed the database to UTF8, i have in OE the word:
"Situação"
gets:
"Situa??o"

The same for SquirrelMail, RoundCube and thunderbird, and MSoutlook 2003 show's it right.

  Paul / Aaron,
  After updating to last svn, when i have for example the folowing word:

  "Situação"

  It gets crazy showed by OE.

Squirrelmail show it +/- correct, but are other email that he just show it wrong as you can see in attach "sq mail.jpg".


In thunderbird i can see the messages with the subject starting with UTF8..... etc etc right, but the one with the text "Situação" seams a bit strange also..

  I have the database with charset UTF8 and collation utf8_general_ci
  And in dbmail.conf i also have with:

  encoding             = utf8
  default_msg_encoding = utf8

  How to resolve this, or this need some fine tunning from you?
  Want me to report this?


  Jorge
