[Typo3-dev] plainMailEncoded with charset conversion

[Simon Ihmig]

Hi,

It would be nice to be able to run a site in utf-8, but send out
notification mails (e.g. from feAdmin and related extendsions) in
ISO-8859-1, because many freemail systems don't support utf-8.

You are able to set the charset with the config option
notification_email_charset, however this does not convert the actual mail
data, so if it is in utf-8, the mails are broken.

What is needed IMHO is charset conversion inside of
tslib_fe->plainMailEncoded.

I filed the same suggestion already on bugs.typo3.org for better tracking
and supplied an extended plainMailEncoded function to provide this
functionality. See http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=1268

It would be nice to have this integrated into future versions!

Greetings,
Simon
