[freeside-users] Error when sending emails with non us characters

[Vladimir Grujic]

Hi there,

i have version 3.7 installed on debian 8 using documentation provided on
the website. I hit a problem when trying to send an email to customer
(invoice for example) and some of the fields contain non US characters
(ascended characters). Database is pg UTF-8 . The characters are showing in
the browser (after some minor tweaking) and latex output. The error when
sending email is

Error

sent without problems. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Thanks in advance,
