Attachments with umlauts Ä/ä, Ö/ö, Ü/ü

emClient is not the best email program. The software cannot handle file attachments with umlauts Ä/ä, Ö/ö, Ü/ü in the file attachments. The message “Mapi error” is then displayed. Change this, in the short term

Are those characters are in the file name ? or are they within / inside the attached document ?

Also how many emails do you receive or send with attachments like that ?

Also what version of eM Client are you using ?

I get a lot of emails from my lawer in Germany. Most (all?) contain Umlaute.

Since I have nothing better to atm I just tested it. Both, Umlaute in text as well as in the file name. They send and receive without a problem.

That problem might lie somewhere else.

This is v.9.2.2258

I haven’t encountered any issues like that myself. To be sure, I tested it explicitly but couldn’t reproduce any problems—everything worked fine with IMAP@ v10.1.4588. I also didn’t receive any error messages when sending or receiving emails.
