Don't really understand what you mean by that ? Shall I convert the "From:" E-mail
address somehow ... could you please give me your inputs offlist ?

I did not use metaCharset because I thought it would be wanted somewhen/for some reason
that the mail character set would be a different than the site one ... but don't ask
me if this ever happens ...

What do you mean by "the charset should be set according to the current template" ???
If I put the confix.tx_kbmailcs_formMailCharset in some template on some subsite just
those sites will use it and will have a different mail charset ? did you mean that ?
