Summary 0014238: Wrong encoding of pages
Description Pages in backend are encoded as ISO-8859-1 (because the meta content-type tag), but output messages from processqueue or processbounces are encoded in UTF-8. Either change the page encoding to utf-8 (better) or decode html entities to latin1 if you want it to display correctly.

 Finally, my patch isn't good... You must use $GLOBALS["strCharSet"] instead of $strCharSet.

 This is a problem that is frequently reported in the forums. Some examples:

Recently, a new problem related came up. The special characters didn't appeared correctly on the subject and footer of the emails sent.
By changing 'iso-8859-1' for 'UTF-8' on line 4 ( in the $strCharSet variable)
the proble fixed for the french language on the
lists/texts/[french].inc

The file , after it was changed said:

<?php
# language dependent text used in the interface for users (not admin)
# translation by Gijsbert Rochat, updated by Jean-Luc Picard
$strCharSet = 'ISO-8859-1';
$strName = 'Nom';
$strAddress = 'Adresse';
$strEmail = 'Courriel';
$strTown = 'Ville';
...

However, later on this solution also turned out to be incomplete, since when opening the mails on a mailing administrator like Firebird, the footer couldn't show the special characters propperly. It did display them perfectly on subject and footer using Gmail.
