I "abuse" mailto for transfering mails from FileMaker to PowerMail and to
send them therefrom.

Example of the FileMaker(FM)-script:
----------
"mailto:"&FM_FIELD_ADDRESS&"?subject=
"&""&FM_FIELD_SUBJECT&""&"&body="&""FM_FIELD_MAILTEXT&""
----------
Works fine.

Unfortunately PowerMail doesn't support "&from=" in the mailto string
(unlike other programs so as Eudora, see <http://www.tandb.com.au/email/
clients/>).
Anyway.

--> The much bigger problem is: the diacritic signs (like the german
umlauts) come in a very strange form into the PowerMail mailtext.

Converting such signs into ASCI or Unicode code (with preceding %-sign)
couldn't help.

Is there a way to encode such diacritic signs in the body of mailto in a
form which PowerMail accepts?
