sendmail japanase

[malay boy]

Hi,
I have a sendmail script which sent the email to Japanese user. The sendmail are sent using a cronjob and the data are queried from Oracle Database.

Question :
1) whenever the japan user open the email they only see a garbage.
2) i have changed the script to include export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8 before query to oracle database. But the result still the same.
3) is this the problem with HPUX/Sendmail or oracle environment.

Help Help Help .. I'm so confuse on what to do next ... HP support not helping much.

regards
mB

In the crontab setting you have to export LANG variable setting.

export LANG=""

Get the available LANG setting from locale -a output.

Hello,

Are you sending email in English ? I think, Japanese user might have configured for Japanese language so, he sees only garbage.

Check how to send mail using japanese encoding format.
