Note Submitter: timo dot witte at kwick dot de
----
if you wonder how to encode an subject in UTF-8 do it like this:
<?php
mail("timo.witte@kwick.de", "=?UTF-8?B?".base64_encode("also öhm
äähh ühh puh ja die Sonderzeichen")."?=", "asbdasdasd bla blabla",
$headers);
?>
=UTF-8?B?[Base64 encoded Subject]?=
The B stands for Base64 you could use Q instead of B and encode your UTF-8 string in 7 bit ASCII but
base64 is simpler i think.
why encoding?
because you are not allowed to use 8-bit ASCII in mailheaders only 7-bit ASCII is allowed and pure
utf-8 uses 8-bit ASCII characters.
