.. _Introduction:

Introduction
------------


.. _What-does-it-do:

What does it do?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This extension sets the Character Set of Mails sent using the classes
class.t3lib\_htmlmail.php, class.t3lib\_dmailer.php and
class.t3lib\_formmail.php. So this is true for Form-Mails and Mails
sent via the Direct-Mailer Engine (Newsletters). The Character set get
set to different values depending on which class gets used. If the
basic htmlmail class is used the value “forceCharset” which is
configurable via the Install-Tool is used. For the dmailer class the
character set is extracted out of the page which shall get sent. If
not found the “forceCharset” value is used. For Formmails a TS Setup
value is used.


.. _Adminstration:

Adminstration
-------------

Just install the extension, clear the cache. Then you will have to do
different thing depending on where you want the charset to get set.


.. _Newsletter-Mails-sent-via-Direct-Mail:

Newsletter Mails sent via Direct Mail
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For this to work nothing has to be done. The character set which shall
get used gets simply extracted out of the Page which gets sent. If no
meta tag defining the charset is found the “forceCharset” value
setable via the Install Tool is used.


.. _Formmail-Mails:

Formmail Mails
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To set the character set of a formmail (Typo3 Formular) use the
following TS Syntax and add it to one of your template which are
responsible for the Mailform page.

::

   config.tx_kbmailcs_formMailCharset = utf-8


.. _Mails-sent-from-extensions-via-htmlmail-class:

Mails sent from extensions via htmlmail class
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For this to work you will need to set the “forceCharset” value setable
via the Install Tool


.. _Known-problems:

Known problems
--------------

This or even a, a little bit better, code should get inserted into the
core so character-sets are respected in the direct-mailer and htmlmail
classes by default. I will try to get such code into the core.


.. _To-Do-list:

To-Do list
----------

Get the functionality into the core
