Subject: $mail->attr('content-type.charset' => 'UTF-8'); is discarded
I'm trying to set the charset for a multipart/alternative text/html part and the header is never sent to the SMTP server. my $mail = MIME::Lite->new( #FIXME we should not refer to 'ET" in our FROM email From => $from, To => $to, Subject => encode('MIME-Header', $subject), Type => 'multipart/alternative', ); _utf8_off($html); # MIME::Lite ignores this: $mail->attr('content-type.charset' => 'UTF-8'); $mail->attach( #THIS WORKS: 'Content-Type' => 'text/html; charset="utf-8"', Encoding => 'base64', Type => 'text/html', Data => $html, ); print $mail-as_string() That program generates: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="_----------=_13143624054730"; charset="UTF-8" X-Mailer: MIME::Lite 3.027 (F2.73; T1.29; A2.06; B3.01; Q3.01) Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2011 14:40:05 +0200 From: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To: YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYy Subject: v1 (charset=utf-8, base64)=?UTF-8?B?IC0gV2hhdCBpcyDtjoQ=?=?
