Java mail charset ISO-8859-2 not working

I am having problem with Java Mail API.

I can successfully send mail, but some special characters (from ISO-8859-2 languages like czech, slovak) are not shown in mail. They are damaged even in IDE output.

What am I doing wrong?

Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setContent(message, "text/plain; charset=iso-8859-2")
Solution

  • I found solution, using multipart. here is code :

    MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
MimeMultipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
msg.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(recipient));
MimeBodyPart tmpBp = new MimeBodyPart();
tmpBp.setContent(message,"text/plain; charset=utf-8");
multipart.addBodyPart(tmpBp);
msg.setContent(multipart);
Transport.send(msg);
