Hi, I'm successfully using the sendmail logicsheet to generate emails. I have 1 problem; I need to send text in UTF-8. I have following code (snippet): String bodytxttmp = ...read content from UTF-8 file bodytxttmp The text shows up with some '?' instead of the norma characters, which seems to indicate the text is send as ASCII . How can I tell cocoon the text needs to be send a utf-8 ? H.
