mailx: Unable to send Japanese
Hi All,
I am facing problem in sending Japanese characters using mailx command in GNU linux machine.
The mail is going with junk characters like "メールの-界へようこそ".
I tried changing the LANG value to japan locale off UTF-8. But it doesn't worked. I have to send the data as body not as an attachment. Subject also will be in Japanese.
Could some one please help on this.
Thanks,
Karteek
