I am writing a simple email program in Python that will send out
emails containing Chinese characters in the message subject and body.
I am not having any trouble getting the email body displayed correctly
in Chinese inside the email client, however the email subject and
sender name (which are also
Thanks Martin, I actually have read that page before. The part that
confuses me is the line:
h = Header('p\xf6stal', 'iso-8859-1')
I have tried using:
h = Header(' ', 'GB2312')
but when I run the code, I get the following error:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'gb2312' codec can't decode bytes in positi
Seems some characters are missing from my last post. The line that
says:
h = Header(' ', 'GB2312')
should say:
h = Header(' ', 'GB2312')

That's really strange. The chinese characters I am inputing into the
post are not being displayed. Basically, what I am doing is this:
h = Header('(Some Chinese characters inserted here', 'GB2312')

UnicodeDecodeError: 'gb2312' co
Thanks Martin,
The "Some Chinese characters" are loaded from a MySQL table and are

I've added the following line at the top of the code:
# -*- coding: GB2312 -*-
I've also added the following line into the code:
h = Header(subject.encode('GB2312'), 'GB2312')
Note tha
Thanks Richie,
I've tried removing the encode('GB2312') line, so the code looks like
this:
h = Header(subject, 'GB2312')
However, this line still causes the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/web88/html/app/sendmail.py", line 314, in
h = Header(subject, 'GB2
I'm an idiot! Gabriel, you're right! Turns out the ISP was running
Python 2.3, which has known issues with the GB2312 codec. They've
upgraded to 2.4 and now everything runs smoothly!
