Hello,

We've upgraded to the last pre release (RT 3.0.3pre3) and still have some 
probles with the encodings.

We've noticed differences with several user mail agents: With Eudora, Outlook 
Express and Netscape Messenger (included in Netscape 7) everything goes well, 
but with webmail programs like Endymion mailman, Yahoo Email or Hotmail there 
are strange behaviours.

Sending a mail with a Subject:  áéíóúÑñ 
and with the same characters in the body gives different results.

With Mailman you will see how the subject dissaperars in the tickets list and 
the body has a strange encoding. But the whole ticket is stored in the 
database, subject included.

The same mail with mailman is seen with no subject, despite the fact it was 
stored, and RT does a good work displaying correctly the body.

Hotmail messages arrive with correct body and subject, but we realized looking 
at the headers, the subject has a strange encoding.

To sum up, looking at the Tickets and Transactions tables has show us that 
there are differences in the encoding stored at the database (MySQL).

Does anyone has a clue?

Jose
