I'm trying to track down a problem I've seen for a long time. I had hoped that Lasso 9.1.5 would fix it even though I couldn't confirm that the bug was reported with the Mac OS X version of Lasso.

Here's the problem:

When I use the following code to send an email...

<?LassoScript
local(mySubject) = 'Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) carl.ketterling@thursby.com, AM12345678'
email_send:
-host='mail.thursby.com',
-from='carl@thursby.com',
-to='carl@thursby.com',
-subject=#mySubject,
-body='TEST';
?>


....I get the following Subject: line in the raw source of an email:

Subject: =?utf-8?Q?Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) carl.ketter ling@thursby.com, AM12345678?

If I send a message with the same body and subject using Apple's Mail program, the subject line looks like this:

Subject: Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) Text: (100.100) carl.ketterling@thursby.com, AM12345678


So, I'm wondering:
1) Is the encoding done properly?
2) Why does Lasso think the encoding is necessary?
3) If you use this type of solution to send email, have you experienced this problem?
4) If you don't use this type of solution to send email, what do you use?


Thanks,
Carl Ketterling
