Note Submitter: aldertb at XS4ALL dot nl ---- I experienced problems with removed euro signs and some other accented letters. The text came from a DB but contained the euro sign etcetera inside the mail function, just as when you would define it as a string. (Did die($newsletter['message']). It was lost in the mail I received though! When I defined the message as a string inside the sending function (overriding text from DB), including euro sign as a single character, I DID receive the email including euro sign! This was experienced on 2 different email accounts. With one I received no text after the euro sign. But only when text came from mySQL DB from a longtext Latin1-field... I installed the pear mail class and this solved the strange problem and could just send text from the DB...
