hello,
i have made a utility software for receiving and
sending mails by using Winsock control in VB 6.0.
But i am facing a problem, i input subject of mail
in japanese , and attach a text file (contents
written in japanese) and send it , it sends the mail
properly but when i receive the mail and open it then
the message written in text file comes in correct
format, but subject does not come in proper format.It
shows some garbbled values. i tried to input the
subject through a text file also but same problem
arises.i am using the following statements for
providing charset :
Winsock1.SendData("MIME-Version: 1.0" + vbcrlf)
Winsock1.SendData("Content-Type:text/plain;
charset=shift_jis" + vbcrlf)
Winsock1.SendData("Content-Transfer-Encoding:7bit"+ vbcrlf)
Winsock1.SendData(StringValue + vbcrlf)
StringValue stores japanese text string and in correct
format, but when i open mail it does not show in
correct format.
pls help me in solving this problem.
if i am wrong then pls tell me the way to correct
it.
thanks,
neeraj

Hi neeraj,
I would use Outlook Express to create a similar message, examine how it encodes the Subject header, and then send the same string in your program.
