Hello,

I'm experiencing problems with emails that are sent from web pages. The
problems occur when using:
1) PHP's mail() function
2) FormMail CGI-scripts, like Matt Wright's FormMail

When opening such emails all German and Scandinavian letters (ä, ö, å)are
converted to Chinese letters, question marks, 䬬 symbols etc. However,
when choosing "reply" it all looks as it should.

Here is an email I received yesterday:
Subject:

And here is how it looks when I click the "reply" button:

There is no problem with "normal" emails that are being sent from one email
address to another. It only happens with emails that have been sent throuhg
php or cgi.

With kind regards
