Description

I'm using sendMessageData() method of SMTPClient class to obtain a Writer object. The mails i need to send contain unicode characters. The Writer which sendMessageData() method returns, uses "ISO-8859-1" encoding which does not provide support for all unicode characters. Also the encoding is not configurable i.e. there is no method through which i can set the encoding to something else. This issue has delayed the release of my project. I think this is a very major issue which needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Unicode support should be provided by this API or encoding must be made configurable. Please provide me a workaround for this issue. It's very urgent!
