Looking for sendmail class (utf8 content / spec. characters in header)

sendmail class / utf8 / special characters

[tnobs]

Hej hej

I'm looking for a PHP sendmail class, which is able to send utf8 encoded body, and where the special characters are shown right in the header, like: "Thömas <[e-mail]>"

Is it possible to send both versions in one mail, text and html ?

I have tested now several classes and functions, but I always run into problems with special characters in the header, the subject field isn't that problem .. more the mailFromName etc.

Any links and tips welcome, thanks tnobs

Hej

I'm working here in Sweden, where they have ä ö å in the alphabet.

So for example if you have:
From: Hänson <[e-mail]>
To: [e-mail]
Subject: Här ar min link
Body: Hej Johan

The mail body is utf8 encoded, and is working fine. Sometimes I have problems with the "-" character in a special mail client (first class).
But this is ok.

When it comes to special characters in the name (From), ... hotmail, gmail, thunderbird... etc. is working... but not every mail client (gmx, first class).

I'm looking for a mail class, which is able to send text or html mails, without any character problems.

If somebody knows one, I pay you a beer.... ;-)

For example, if I create my own header, like:

function send_mail_text($to, $body, $subject, $fromaddress, $fromname)
{

$header = '';

$textboundary = uniqid(time());
$charset = "UTF-8";

$header .= 'From: '.$fromname.'<'.$fromaddress.'>'."\r\n";
$header .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0'."\r\n";

$header .= 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset="'.$charset.'"'."\r\n";
$header .= strip_tags($body)."\r\n\r\n";

if(preg_match("/[a-z0-9_-]+(\.[a-z0-9_-]+)*@([0-9a-z][0-9a-z-]*[0-9a-z]\.)+([a-z]{2,4})/i",$to)) {

$subject = '=?'.$charset.'?B?' . base64_encode($subject) . '?=';

mail($to,$subject,"",$header);
return true;

} else {

return false;
}
}

Here, I have the problem with the mail name from, if it's "Thömas" for example.

Thanks Norbert
