 * When I use Ä or Ö in welcome message or in newsletter, it sends them like this:
   ———————-
   a { text-decoration: none; color: #0088cc; }
 *  Page topic
 * Sähköpostiosoitteesi on rekisteröity onnistuneesti [http://www.domain.fi](http://www.domain.fi)
   -
   sivuston postituslistalle. Tulet jakossa saamaan sivuston uutiskirjeen. Mikäli
   et ole tilannut tätä uutiskirjettä tai et haluakkaan liittyä postituslistalle,
   ole hyvä ja ilmoita siitä sivuston ylläpidolle tästä. ————————- Is there a way
   to fix this? Also I would like to know how to disable that css code from the 
   top of the welcome message.
 * Thanks!

 * Ofcourse this page shows Ä and Ö right so that my example was quite pointles 
   🙂 But I think you understand what i mean..

 * Hi, did you try to send the same email to another account or read it on another
   email reader? The email you reported is the html version and should be shown 
   as HTML while it seem the html version with the markup stripped away.

 * I have only one email account so I couldn’t test it with any other accounts.
 * So is there a way to send no-HTML newsletters also? I didn’t find it.
 * Anyway, still the main point is that I need to fix that charset problem. It does
   not look good if the characters are not shown right.

 * The charset is ok if the email client shows the email content in the right way(
   html+utf-8). Try to send an email to me at [stefano@satollo.net](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/utf-8-a-o-problem/stefano@satollo.net?output_format=md)
   so I can check the format.
