How do I get Mail::Sender to handle mix languages, but more importantly the following Chinese characters when sending email:

???????

OK, when I pasted the chinese characters they looked fine, but now they are just question marks. Please try and help anyway. Sorry about the example chines characters.

I don't have an answer other than to say that you'll have to have some sort of chinese font set installed in order to send chinese characters. As you know, the "english" font set doesn't understand the chinese character set which explains the question marks.

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!
 
Thanks tviman. The font used is SimSun, but how do I get perl and Mail::Sender to use that font? I have been trying to use Encode, Encode::HanExtra and UTF8Simple modules, but have not been successful.
