Re: UTF-8@Hotmail

??

Using Mozilla, I e-mailed an UTF8-message to my own Hotmail address:

Subject: =?UTF-8?B?VW5pa29kZS1wcsO4dmU=?=

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable


When I received it in Hotmail, it contained:



So that every character > U+00ff were rendered as two- or 
three-sequences of ISO 8859-1 -characters.

The way it has 'always' been ...

UTF-8@Hotmail

2002-02-19 Thread Daniel Yacob

Greetings,

I just noticed that utf-8 encoding is finally working at hotmail.
UTF-8 works in the subject as well as the body of a letter.  Late
last year I saw that UTF-8 would not display properly at hotmail,
even when the letter body was HTML with  the encoding set right.

Anyone here know for how long this functionality has been available
and to what extent?  I'm not quite brave enough to start using a
unicode password ;)

thanks,

/Daniel
