Hi,
In current Leap (and TW as well I assume) there seems to be a problem when sending Email notifications in german language: The Umlauts get chopped:
What sould be sent: Die folgenden Dokumente wurden zum Versand übermittelt und sind auf dem Server zur erneuten Nutzung verfügbar bis sie automatisch bereinigt werden
What is sent: Die folgenden Dokumente wurden zum Versand bermittelt und sind auf dem Server zur erneuten Nutzung verfgbar bis sie automatisch bereinigt werden
Note that the Umlauts are missing. Mail itself looks OK from the header: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
In the Script that triggers the mail notification I changed the command to write into a file:
echo "--$MIMEBOUNDARY--" ) 2>$ERRORSTO | $SENDMAIL -f$FROMADDR -oi -t
changed to
echo "--$MIMEBOUNDARY--" ) 2>$ERRORSTO | cat > /tmp/examine_me.eml
Result: All Umlauts are there
So I logged in as root (as well as uucp) and tried from the command line: echo abcäöü | mail -s "Täst" $email
-> worked as well.
Any idea where the problem could come from? Mail agent is postfix
Thanks Axel
Given this is a issue related to a specific piece of software that doesn't effect most people, its probably better as a bug report on bugzilla.opensuse.org so the maintainer can help you diagnose and fix the issue directly. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
