Dear list,
I have just joined this mailing list hoping to find advice on my
mail()-problem, since even after over 1.5 hours of googling I still
don't know how to solve this (hope this is the correct list for my problem):
In order to overcome any codepage-problems I coded a website completely
using UTF-8. On this website there is a contact form starting like this:
<form id="kontaktformular_intern" action="$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]"
method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" accept-charset="UTF-8">
So I believe the code will receive all UTF-8-text for sending the mail.
To send the mail I coded the following:
function sendEmail($to, $from, $subject, $message) {
$header = 'From: ' . $from . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $from . "\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$header .= "\nContent-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8";
$header .= "\nContent-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable\n";
$subject = utf8_decode($subject);
$subject = mb_encode_mimeheader($subject,
mb_internal_encoding(),"B","\n");
return mail('r.blo...@gosub.de', $subject, $message, $header);
}
This is what I had found some day in order to send UTF-8-encoded emails.
Here with WindowsXP/Thunderbird everything works fine. But a friend of
mine using some Windows and some Outlook will always receive srumbled
german umlauts...
So I have tried to fumble with quoted-printable and base64-encoding, but
it only gets worse...
Unfortunately I don't have the PEAR-library available on that server
(unless I find out how to "install" it without ssh-access), so I will
have to stick with using PHP's mail()-function.
Can anyone give me any advice on how to accomplish this? The goal should
be to send emails with german umlauts readable under linux, windows and
os x.
Thanks a load in advance and best regards,
Roman.
