Does it support Chinese?

I find the formmail.php doesn't support Chinese. I can't see that if the senders type in Chinese. How can I modify it to support Chinese?

The latest version should support all UTF8 character sets. The only thing right now that does not work with languages that are not latin based are the _regex fields.

What needs to be done to make sure it works on your setup:

1) Change the character encoding on your webpage to UTF8.
2) Make sure you have the latest formmail.php.
3) Make sure your e-mail program supports UTF8 (most do these days).

I see. Thanks a lot!
But after changed to UTF8, the Chinese spacing is not good.

I'm not sure about the spacing since I know next to nothing about Asian languages. Let us know if you find a solution (and what you did) so others can benefit from this post.

P.S. You can adjust your letter spacing with cascading style sheets.
