Ah, ok then
This is not problematic for who uses the email.
The question about the emails i send from the console, are only for me to
read and i usualy don't use non ASCII chars on it so no problem at all.
For me it's solved this sinse it's all working ok :)

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]
Sending 8bit chars in a subject line violates the RFC2822 do please don't do
that. The whole exercise with default_msg_encoding is to accomodate certain
broken but widely used clients (read outlook) that will send 8bit headers.
Those
will most commonly use latin-1 or windows-1250 charsets.
You, however, when sending from the console, are most likely sending utf8
strings.
However, there is *no* way you can determine what charset is used for an
8bit
string. Let me restate that: without knowing the charset beforehand you can
not
know how to represent the characters above 127.
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
