It all depends on your programming language.
A quick Google search returns a quite a few hits:

QP encoding is used when working with the MIME messages in any way - I
would imagine all POP3 or SMTP libraries support ir.

i never heard of this
how do i encode them using quoted-printable encoding ?
is there a procedure for that ?

I mean that your code must check whether you have Unicode characters and
encode them using quoted-printable encoding.

symbols instead of letters.

You need to encode the Unicode characters correctly?

Hi,

I'm using vbscript to create custom calendar entries (.vcs files).
This was working perfectly on outlook 2003 but on the .vcs files of
outlook 2007 it has different format. I managed to break it down and
understand how it works but I have big problem with Greek characters
(Unicode)...

Inside the .vcs file the characters are displayed like this
"=0D=0A=E5=EB=EB=E7=ED=E9=EA=DC=0D=0A=0"
I also see a new field "ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:"

Keep in mind that if I create a new calendar item though outlook it
displays correctly...when I save this as .vcs and open it with
notepad I get the garbage characters.

What do I need to change/add on the custom .vcs to recognize Unicode
characters so I can create manually .vcs files ???

thank you

Regards,
Vassilis
