Re: Sending hebrew mails from PHP to Outlook

When sending with charset=windows-1255 it works. The problem was that the headers where terminated with \r\n instead of \n only. As for the UTF-8 problem, I am not going to solve it now. Windows-1255 is enough for the customer. Again spending hours of work because of Microsoft bugs. -- Ori Idan
