Arabic email

[zahersd +]

Hi
I am having problem with the emails, when I send an email (from the contact seller from the product details page for example) to a seller who has a hotmail account the from part does not appear correctly and the body does not appear correctly until I switch the encoding to utf-8.

I could not make this work no matter what I use in the mail_header, Do you think this has to do with the templates or with the settings on the host server?

please let me know what you think

thank you very much
Zaher

What encoding are you using in your site and what encoding are you using at the top of the email templates?

I am using utf-8

in mail_header I have this line:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

and in the arabic.php file I have:
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'ar_SA.UTF8');


thank you

I made the changes specified in a previous post (set encoding to UTF8 in class.phpmailer.php) and it worked
