I see the message too, when messing around with the charset in OTRS.
However, changing the charset doesn't garble my text.
 
I think that i had an issue like that once, but that was solved in a later version.
(Or was it with imported usernames? Can't remember for sure)
 
New e-mails as well as existing tickets?

Hi Sune.
 
Yes, it's an Exchange mailbox, but the message comes from OTRS. If I change the language of OTRS, the language of the message also changes.

 
If I change OTRS to use UTF-8 then the message does not appear but the Danish characters in the tickets becomes garbled.

 
It appears that OTRS somehow thinks the mail is in UTF-8 while it is actually in ISO-8859-1.

        If my memory serves me right, i think that's pretty much the wording that the Exchange 5.5 IMC uses when it encounters a message with a charset it doesn't know.

        Would it by any chance be an Exchange server mailbox your OTRS install is accessing?

        Hi.

        I'm taking over a test installation of OTRS running on Fedore Core. All tickets mailed to the system starts with this: "This message was written in a character set other than your own. If it is not displayed correctly, click here to open it in a new window."

        I have configured Thunderbird to send emain in iso-8859-1 format (which is default, I believe).

        I have tried to configure everything on the machine to be ISO-8859-1.

        Apache has 'AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-1'

        /etc/sysconfig/i18n has 'LANG="en_US"'

        OTRS has DefaultCharset = 'iso-8859-1'

        Everything has been restarted (including the machine). What did I miss?
