PHPMailer character encoding issues

Question

I try to use PHPMailer to send registration, activation. etc mail to users:

require(\"class.phpmailer.php\");
$mail -> charSet = \"UTF-8\";
$mail = new PH         


        

Answer 1

Sorry for being late on the party. Depending on your server configuration, You may be required to specify character strictly with lowercase letters utf-8, otherwise it will be ignored. Try this if you end up here searching for solutions and none of answers above helps:

$mail->CharSet = "UTF-8";

should be replaced with:

$mail->CharSet = "utf-8";
