Hi Manuel,

Alright, I didn't know this. This makes sense. Cause like I said, even
without me encoding it as utf-8, the problem randomly occured. Perhaps the
apparent random appearance of strange characters and/or missing of
diactrical characters could be explained due to the fact that subsequent
mail messages can get send through different mail gateways to their
end-destination, just like a tcp packets? Or is that not correct? Not very
imporant for me to get answered, but it would help me get a better
understanding of things. ;-)

I probably won't be needing that at this point in time. But that's good to
know also.

Although I only had a quick glance at your class, and it probably does the
job well, it looks like a bit of overkill for my purposes. So in conclusion,
is it fair to say that I only need to change:
$headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit' . LF;
to
$headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable' . LF;
and leave
$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1' . LF;
as is?
Thank you in advance.
