I don't know if the wording in the title is correct. here's a description of the problem:

in the message ($message), when I enter characters like é, ê, à, ç, ... they're not shown like that in the e-mail people receive. instead, they are replaced by ê ë ç . (I suppose the characters I try to use aren't converted to html entities?)

Title: $message not converted into html? » Problem with character set encoding in generate emails

This problem can be solved by modifying line 164 (in the latest version) of forward.module. If you replace "charset=iso-8859-1" with "charset=utf-8", it should fix the problem you are having with the accented characters. At least, this worked for me when I was having the same problem. If that doesn't solve it for you, you might also need to modify your php settings to use utf8. See www.advogato.org/article/812.html for tips on configuring your php.ini for utf8.

Fixed in CVS (DRUPAL-4-6 branch). Give the tarball a few hours to update.
