French accent not displayed in E-MAil

Hello,

Well, I'm having a problem with the plain text and the receveid E-Mails not showing the french accents
Here is what I receive as an E-Mail:


Date de commande : dimanche 22 avril, 2007

Votre Commande a été actualisée avec le statut suivant
:
Nouveau Statut : En traitement

Pour toute question, merci de nous contacter par retour de mail.


"é" is replaced by é

The problem is only happening in the E-Mails. No problem on the website.

After 3 hours of CHARSET replacement and a lot of reading in the Zencart forum, I'm going to give up.

Currently the CHARSET in the french.php (admin & include) are set to ISO-8859-1 and the @setlocale is "fr_FR"

Your help is very welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Re: French accent not displayed in E-MAil

It is translating non-english letters to HTML-equivalents to prevent errors.
The accents probably appear fine on HTML-formatted emails, but not so friendly on TEXT-only emails.
