Send / Read UTF mail

G

hello,

Outlook seems to be having a problem handling UTF properly. Here's what
happens.

1. Cannot read plain text email encoded in utf-8, neither the headers nor
the body. It can only read the body of html email encoded in utf-8 (not the
headers again).
Selecting the encoding from the View>Encoding does nothing.

2. Cannot send plain text email encoded in utf-8.

3. Does not allow for any other character set other than English to be used
for the Subject.

The only settings that I could find are in
Tools > Options > Mail format > International Options > Encoding for
outgoing messages
and in
Tools > Options > Mail format > Fonts > International Fonts > Encoding

Both of these are set to UTF.

Am I missing something?
I hope I am, otherwise I have just wasted lots of money.... as I bought
Office 2003 as well as the Proofing Tools.

Thank you
George

PS. I'm using the English version.
