You send the message with the iso-8859-1 charset.

Please see attached compose1.jpg and received1.jpg. Those are from IMP, newly discovered same problem with DIMP. Chinese characters converted to ??? signs. Not sure if it was intermittent or server software problem, but all PHP modules installed and other PHP applications like PHPBB on the same server worked ok with utf8 Chinese characters.

When logged in Horde using English as UI language and using DIMP, encoding of sent utf-8 Chinese e-mail gets completely messed up with all characters turned in question marks. When logged in Horde using Chinese Traditional as UI language, the same message will get partially messed up. No problem with IMP. Default configuration of the Horde Groupware Webmail Edition, with DIMP 1.1.2 upgrade.
