Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-86
Severity: wishlist

It would be good to be able to be able to set a CHARSET variable in
your crontab which cron would then pickup and add to the headers in
the emails it sends.  For example with a CHARSET of "iso-8859-1" cron
should add these headers:

  Mime-Version: 1.0
  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

Also the Subject should be encoded if necessary, for example:

  Subject: Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> echo =?iso-8859-1?Q?=A35?=

Cheers,
Mark.
