I did also encounter problems with German umlauts, similar as in Jims
examples (i.e. "ß" converts to "ß"). But when using SM to write a reply
to a mail that has been sent in UTF-8 encoding!
When the mail is displayed, everthing is fine, but the quoted text in
the reply field is mismatch. The reply then is sent in ISO-8859-1
encoding.

It was mentioned to try the "lossy encoding" switch in SM configuration.
I tried that and it helped in this case. Is that the real solution?


But beyond, should SM not use ISO-8859-15 to send mails when set to
German? I tried Opera and Thunderbird, they both do by default, but on
the other hand, two German webmail providers that I checked are using
ISO-8859-1. I am confused.

Yours, Gregor
