This problem for maillist.php at least v 1.73 to 1.77

Looking at the danish special letters.

My messages are saved in utf-8 format.
Import of quoted-printable text/plain works fine to utf-8

But in text/html messages quoted-printable are converted to ISO-8859 (I think) 8-bit symbols.

after stripping html codes maillist.php should use the (new?) procedure for text/plain ????

Not sure I understand. Here's the difference between 1.73 and 1.75.

Your theme's charset and database charset may also play a role.

Do you think this is a new problem? I don't think the previous release could've loaded both these messages successfully either.

No, I think it's the the same with all versions I tried, must be old.

Reading and trying to understand the program file "maillist.php" i believe the text conversion is made by one ore more functions from the include directory, but as I'm not a programmer it would take me realy some time to understand what to change.

Some type af table for character translation is selected wrongly, but is not so bad at all, as the translation is "nearly" right, as I can see by inspecting the forum-message file "msg_10000" with a hex-editor. In the "mistaken" translations the characters are still there, only 8-bit instead off utf-8.
When the forum is set up to utf-8, it should not be possible for this function (wich I don't know) to use a 8-bit translation table
