    copied!<p>I'm using Spring and JavaMailSenderImpl, a famous spring class to send emails. My emails contain a lot of unicode chars like èéàò or most notably the dreaded € symbol. My classes work fine when the run on windows. The emails sent are with all the chars (plain text, no html). If I install my app on a Linux virtual server, I'll get all ? instead of the special chars.

It is just a standard mail service provider over SMTP).</p> <p>The code I use to send the email is simply:</p> <pre><code>SimpleMailMessage msg = new SimpleMailMessage(); msg.setTo(adminEmail); msg.setFrom(adminEmail); msg.setSubject(subject); msg.setText(message); mailSender.send(msg); </code></pre> <p>Even setting:</p> <pre><code>System.setProperty("mail.mime.charset", "utf8"); </code></pre> <p>at application startup doesn't solve the situation. In fact, before I was getting ? instead of €, now I get �...</p>
