Introduction

What does it do?

This extension encodes the headers of mails sent with the plainMailEncoded function in tslib_fe. This is useful if you have weird characters in your language like æ, ø and å.

This function is used to send a lot of the administrative mails from TYPO3, among others from the da_newsletter extension

By default the mail message can be encoded but not the headers, and so this extension provides that for the real name part of from and reply- to headers, and for the organisation mailheader.

Users manual

Simply install the extenison. No configuration is needed.

Adminstration

The mailheaders are only encoded if the mailmessage is encoded as well, this is controlled through the config.notification_email_encoding typoscript option. If this property has no value, this extension does nothing.

Please be aware that this extension extends class.tslib_fe.php, and therefore is not compatible with other extensions doing the same.

To-Do list

This should really be a part of the t3lib_div::plainMailEncoded function. And since that script is not extendable, it might be worth considering adopting it into the core.
