This is an Outlook problem. With luck somebody here may have an answer, but we are not Outlook experts. You should go to Outlook channels for help. Here's my best guess: The error message is completely garbled (or is that just the way Outlook rolls?), but it looks like there is data encoded in "eucgb2312-cn". I've seen a lot of Chinese over the years, but I don't think I've ever seen that encoding. So my guess is that some of your users have Outlook installations that know what that is, and some don't. (I would bet that it's just an alias for what almost everyone calls "gb2312", IIRC that's 8-bit EUC-formatted by default, although there are 16-bit and 7-bit versions as well.) The easiest thing is to tell your users who are sending in that encoding to cut it out (getting admins to fix mail software is really hard, but most mail clients have flexible settings for preferred encodings). Use "gb2312" itself, or "gbk" or "gb18030" (superset encodings of "gb2312"), or "UTF-8" (a different encoding), and I bet the problem evaporates.
