Character Sets
Zend_Mail does not check for the correct character set of the mail parts. When
instantiating Zend_Mail, a charset for the e-mail itself may be given. It defaults to
iso-8859-1. The application has to make sure that all parts added to that mail object
have their content encoded in the correct character set. When creating a new mail part, a different
charset can be given for each part.
Only in text format
Character sets are only applicable for message parts in text format.
Usage in CJK languages
The following example is how to use Zend_Mail in Japanese. This is one of
CJK (aka CJKV ) languages. If you use Chinese, you may use
HZ-GB-2312 instead of ISO-2022-JP.
setBodyText(myConvert('This is the text of the mail.'), null, Zend_Mime::ENCODING_7BIT);
$mail->setHeaderEncoding(Zend_Mime::ENCODING_BASE64);
$mail->setFrom('somebody@example.com', myConvert('Some Sender'));
$mail->addTo('somebody_else@example.com', myConvert('Some Recipient'));
$mail->setSubject(myConvert('TestSubject'));
$mail->send();
