Hi, I am using the zen-cart in English and German. When a customer orders, he receives an order confirmation email & subsequent updates on the order process.

When using German, the subject line shows some strange letters as placeholders for the German umlaut, i.e. instead of 'ü' (ue) it writes %&%@,:; or something like this in the middle of a word.

How and where can I change/correct this?

I've checked all the files in language 'german' and also all the other files in the cart system. Still, I have not managed to remedy this.

Thanks for your urgent help.
