Make up your mind which character set you're in?

Mail headers should be separated by CRLF (that's "\r\n" in PHP)

Messages with non-ASCII characters must be sent in quoted-printable
encoding.

You may want to take a look at this class that shows how to send
messages that way. It even comes with an example of how to send a
message in Japanese, but it could be any other idiom using any other
character set:

What do you mean? The class supports quoted printable encoding and
custom character sets since a long time ago.

This is not true for the body of a message, see rfc 2045 and look for
the 8bit and binary values for the content-transfer-encoding header.

How quickly they forget. ;)

-snip from 7/05 posts-
http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage

You provide a _very_ comprehensive class there, Manuel.
Do you by any chance have an instruction manual for it?
;)


Not yet. I can produce a reference manual soon from the class
auto-documentation. It would for instance like in this class:

http://www.phpclasses.org/xmlwriter

It will take me a few days. Just let me know if that would be useful.

Yes, please, VERY. I told my client I'd have her HTML newsletter up


It is almost done and I will probably release it later today, but if
you are in a hurry, you should look at the example scripts supplied
with the class.
-snip-

Now that things are back in context, how's it coming?

Sorry, you cannot assume that the MTA that will get the message will
support 8 bit encoded messages or else your messages may get discarded
and then you wonder why the messages were not accepted. It is better to
play safe and let MTA convert to 8 bit when it knows it can do that.

Hello, I am trying to pinpoint an apparent bug in HTML::Parser. The encoding of the text seems to change incorrectly if the locale isn't set properly.
