Mail notifications for Eudora clients not displaying correct information in message subject
I have been using PMDF from Innosoft with Netscape Calendar Server 4.0. I
recently upgraded from Calendar Server 3.51 to 4.0, and I am using the
sendmail command to
send out email notifications. When I send out email notifications, clients
who use Eudora and who are on a Windows platform do not see the correct
information in the Subject line of the emails. This problem does not occur
with other email clients, including Eudora clients on Macintosh platforms.
This problem also does not occur when I send email using the natives endmail
binary.
<P>
The following line is an example of the Subject line that is displayed when
a Eudora client on Windows views an email notification:
<P>
Subject: Wallace (xsw),Brian SmlhbiBT
<P>
Is there is a way to configure how Calendar Server writes the Subject lines
for email notifications?
<P>
Check the setting for the character set that is being used for the content
portion of email messages. This setting is in the Calendar Server
configuration file, which is located at
<P>
/users/unison/misc/unison.ini
<P>
The mimecontentcharset
parameter under the [CWS]
section determines what character set is used to encode the content and subject
portion of a (MIME) email message.
<P>
The accepted values for the mimecontentcharset
parameter are as follows:
<P>
ISO-8859-1
Shift_JIS
MSCP932
<P>
The default value is ISO-8859-1
.

please see the Netscape Calendar Server 4.0: Administrator's Guide at
