Quoting 'http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/DrIntl/017/#Q3',
The cause of the problem is that the subject line, which is part of message header, is limited to characters that have code values between 33 and 126 inclusive, per RFC 2822 - low-ANSI. In conclusion, it's an issue that needs to be addressed by IETF and the mail server vendors. Any mail server that processes the e-mail you sent can corrupt the Euro symbol in the subject or body of the message if it doesn't recognize the symbol. From my tests, Microsoft Exchange 2000 keeps the Euro symbol intact. You should contact your IT department/service providers to find out what they are running and encourage them to update their infrastructure. Can you find the wrong part? Can you believe that the Doctor have not heard about 'RFC 2047, MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) Part Three: Message Header Extensions for Non-ASCII Text', dated 1996? The issue should be addressed by IETF?! Sorry, but it really ached when I read that. I consider this very bad for i18n evangelists like Microsoft. It seems that the writer is (intentionally?) using misinformation to advertise MS Exchange. roozbeh
