Hi Mike,

I still does not display correctly in my email reader (Outlook) when explicitly
setting the content type as you suggested, which I think is a problem with
Outlook 2010.   I'm wondering what I would need to do to convert it to another
format/encoding?

Thx!

Tim

Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] How can I send UTF-8 characters using
xdmp:email?

My SMTP is rusty, but this seems to work without any special tricks.

xdmp:email(
<em:Message
 xmlns:em="URN:ietf:params:email-xml:" 
 xmlns:rf="URN:ietf:params:rfc822:">
  <rf:subject>test email</rf:subject>
  <rf:from>
    <em:Address>
      <em:name>XXX</em:name>
      <em:adrs>XXX</em:adrs>
    </em:Address>
  </rf:from>
  <rf:to>
    <em:Address>
      <em:name>XXX</em:name>
      <em:adrs>XXX</em:adrs>
    </em:Address>
  </rf:to>
  <em:content>
This text has a diacritic: Kölsch
  </em:content>
</em:Message>)

The umlaut displays correctly in my mailer. However this relies on the mailer to
default to UTF-8, and some environments may still be set to default to ASCII,
CP1252, etc. So to be on the safe side I would add something like
<rf:content-type>text/plain; charset=utf-8</rf:content-type> to the headers -
substituting whatever mime type you wish to use, of course.
