ASP : Email Body UTF-8 Problem

[ZeeHashmi]

Hi,

Well I am a PHP Programmer, and I am coding in Classic ASP for some reason. I am stuck at a place.
My script need to send an email that will have Swedish Characters.
I have below code, the Subject is fine however the email body shows ?? in place of all the Swedish characters. Like this: Best??llning Ovriga ??nskem??l

Please help me !
Regards
Z

I don't know the answer, but since your code is pretty much all vbscript, I recommend also posting this question in the vbscript forum: forum329

Hi Z,

I found the solution here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9061974/asp-classic-cdo-email-messaging-use-utf-8-in-textbody

Try

objCDOMailer.TextBodyPart.Charset = "utf-8"

instead of

objCDOMailer.BodyPart.Charset = "utf-8" 
objCDOMailer.HTMLBodyPart.Charset = "utf-8"

Obviously, the encoding problem does stem from TextBodyPart, so even if you set the htmlbody encoding correctly, it won't work since the problem is higher up in the hierarchy.

Good luck!

Unfortunately not, thats not the solution. My email is based on HTML therefore I cant use TextBodyPart.
