[Zope] mail encoding problem

[Ronny Theunissen]

I'm trying to send a mail from Zope (2.6.2b3 on RH9.0) containing latin-1 characters using the following script invocations:

# external method to quopri.encodestring
encode=container.encode_quotedprintable
container.MailHost.send(encode(body),mto=toAd,mfrom=fromAd,subject=encode(subject),encode='quoted-printable')

This works fine for the Yahoo mail-client, but Outlook filters out special characters in subject and body.

Does anyone know a solution to this problem?
