There is no need for detail description of the problem with
phpmailer.
I am not asking how to port phpmailer to full UTF-8 php application.
It was just one real-word example.
I am asking about more general advice how to "attack" this problem
with multi-byte strings and third party-libraries. Phpmailer is not
the only class I am using.
Setting php_value works just fine. When func_overload is on multi
byte versions are used instead of "ordinary" string functions.
(I can describe problem with phpmailer when func_overload is on but
this is not really relevant for this thread.
I am sending both html and txt versions of the message in UTF-8.
Func_overload is on. (so php uses mb_strlen instead of strlen , and so
on .. for all string functions which are multi-byte unsafe).
In this scenario html is send like some sort of attachment but since
func_overload is on strlen does not return number of bytes but number
of characters (which is not equal when using UTF-8) so attachments are
not properly sent. So instead of viewing only html or only txt message
I can see (in my e-mail client) both version (html and txt) one below
the other with some damaged headers.
Also there is possibility that strlen is not the only function which
causes this kind of behavior in phpmailer.
When func_overload is off and "ordinary" string functions are used it
SEEMS that phpmailer works fine but I didn't test enough to be sure. )
