Hi, I am using this sendmail.cgi perl script below to receive by email online form data but it is not able to properly encode some foreign characters.
For example this string
Plaça de la Germandat 7 Sant Julià de Lòra
is converted to
Plaça de la Germandat 7 Sant Julià de Lòra
when received as plain text email and read in Outlook. I have already added
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
in the html form heading and
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
in the .htaccess file but they do not seem to make any difference.
What should I add to the script to receive the correct utf-8 characters? Or is there any other solution? Thanks for any help.
