Hi list,
Firstly, I sent an email to a client quoting some prices on the server that we
use for our own website and it arrived with the (correctly) typed £ sign as a
capital 'L' .
I then sent a test email to myself from my ISP account to my address on this
same (questionable) server and it was perfect. To be sure, I repeated this
exercise the opposite way round (own server to ISP a/c) again perfect! I phoned
my ISP help boys who are usually mega reliable and they assured me they had
never experienced this before. So - has anyone any ideas on this, I can only
assume that the problem lies with the recipient's ISP's web server - I do not
know the os.
Secondly, if characters are being mis-read by a machine on any send path does
such an error constitute a risk?
Thirdly, if so, what steps should be taken?
