   Well, I just dont know what to do anymore.
   I've installed wp-contactform and everything goes fine until someone uses portuguese characters. For the user, eveything's ok but when I receive the form result in my mail it cames all strangely formated such as:
   Não is Não.
   Could someone help me in this one? I really need this characters to work. Most of my site visitors are portuguese...
   Note: The encoding that I've set in Options is UTF-8
   Thanks

   I encountered similar problem.

   You know what, you can test it yourself.

   I wrote a test mail to see if the installed plugin is working.

   I wrote this: I've been reading...
   And in my mail box I see I’ve been reading...

   Hey Swordfish. I've tryed just now with "I've been reading..." and it worked. But it does not work with Não. Could you try?

   Hi,
   I had problem with slovak encoding, and UTF-8 charset.
   But I solve this problem with some commands in mysql.

   This was fixed in changeset 3599. You can wait for 1.4 or change around line 148 in wp-contactform.php

   change

   $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; $encodingn"; // sets the mime type

   to

   $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"" . get_settings('blog_charset') . "\"n";

   which will correctly set the MIME headers so it will recognize it as UTF-8 or whatever you're using.
