    Posted: 06 January 2018 at 11:22am

About two days ago, email notifications from out forum started having a different encoding. The result of this is that non english characters (in my case the danish æ, ø and å, show up in emails as 

I am pretty sure that no changes to the setup was performed around the time of the change, but I do not know how to correct it - any suggestions a re welcome.

Email notifications sent both before and after the problem are encoded using iso-8859-1

It seems to be a change where the actual subject and body of the emails changed from using "=E6" to "" for the character "æ"

We were able to fix this issue for a customer by adding the following to line 435 of the file functions/functions_send_mail.asp

.ContentTransferEncoding = "Quoted-Printable"

This fix only work though if you are using Persists AspEmail as the mail component in your forums email settings page within the admin area.

This fix will be included in the next release of web Wiz Forums.

I'm afraid that the solution did not work in my case , even though we are using Persists AspEmail

Did some configuration change in the Web Wiz hosting setup, around the time where I started getting this error?

I have solved the problem.

The " ContentTransferEncoding = "Quoted-Printable" "-part worked, after a few tweeks!
