Hi,

that seems to be a problem with the character coding setting.
At the moment I have no further ideas about that.

Yes, probably it is.
Is there a place where I can change the encoding setting?

thanks,

Hi,

actually I'm not sure whether this problem is to be solved in the email client software or on the server or in Visforms.

Visforms set the character encoding for the mails to utf-8
There is no option to change the encoding.
The encoding is set in components/com_visforms/model/visforms.php in function sendReceiptMail() and function sendResultMail()
$mail->CharSet = "utf-8";

For the next release I will check, if there is a better encoding solution.

Regards,
Aicha
