Re: Scambled German umlauts when replying to and forwarding mails

Hello all,

after I turned on lossy encoding in SquirrelMail configuration the umlaut
problem was solved for most mails. But I experienced that in some mails it
does not work. Instead of scambled umlauts like ü instead of ü I now see
questionmarks instead of every umlaut in the reply field.

I noticed that in the original mail the header just shows:

> Content-type: text/plain

and not like in other mails where it works something like this:

> Content-Type: text/plain;
>      charset="iso-8859-1"
> Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
> Content-Language: de

Is it possible that the missing of a charset (I don't think that it makes a
difference if the charset is iso-8859 or utf-8) and the other information
given screws up SquirrelMail?

Regards,
Martin
