Hello,

I'm not sure whether you meant that installing version 3.8 beta2.1 will 
fix the issue, or I should wait for the patch from you and apply it to 
this version of Typo3. Anyway, I've updated to 3.8 beta2.1 from the 
adress you gave me and checked the bahaviour again. Unfortunately, it 
still doesn't work correctly.

In the BE all information is displayed correctly. In mails the content 
is ok and the subject or other headers are not showing correctly (utf 
data shown in iso-8859-1 encoding. The mail subject is even marked with: 
"From: =?iso-8859-1?...". Then, the headers are:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

I hope that there is a patch that will change this behaviour.

I'm using the latest typo3 3.8 beta 2.1 with:

direct_mail - 1.0.8  	
sr_direct_mail_ext - 0.2.10
direct_mail_subscription - 1.0.3
kb_mailcs - 0.1.1
