    Hi,

    Can anyone help me in solving the character issue in mail subject?

    I would like to print the subject with the text "ocenění" ... But i am receiving some junk values like " Ocenění ".... when i send mail through the PHP page.

    I used the code "$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0';
    $headers .= "\nContent-Type: multipart/mixed;
    $message = <.........message.....>
    for the body section and it worked fine.. but for the "subject section" i tried many options, but it is not working.

    Thank you in advance.

    You're assuming that the recipient's email program can decode anything but pure text. You can't do that. Unless they have their computer set to the same language as you have yours set to, it's not safe to assume anything other than the standard ASCII set. (This includes HTML - many email clients don't parse HTML, they display it.)
