> The PutEmail processor makes use of the Jakarta Mail library. The does not 
> allow specifying the character set used for the email subject, though it does 
> for the message body. As a result, if there are unicode characters, they do 
> not come across properly in the subject but instead have a bunch of question 
> marks instead.
> However, the issue appears to be resolved by updating conf/bootstrap.conf 
> with the following:
> {quote}java.arg.mail.charset=-Dmail.mime.charset=UTF-8
> {quote}
> Given that we make UTF-8 the default everywhere else that we have the ability 
> to specify it, we should include this by default in bootstrap.conf
