Hi everyone,

we wrote a simple cronjob for our server, which connects to a database,
gets some data eventually sends a mal via the java mail API.

Until now everything worked fine, but we since we updated our OS the
mail subject looks like:

=?ANSI_X3.4-1968?Q?Noch_freie_Plaetze_fuer:_=3FHSV-Hallencup_?=
=?ANSI_X3.4-1968?Q?2006=3F_am_8.1.2006_in_der?=

Uhm, I am really confused. The *really* strange thing is:

When I am executing the script via putty on the linux console, the
subject is being shown correctly - but running as cronjob the subject
is scrumbled ;-)

The following java code is used to create the message:

/*
* Created on 17.03.2005
*
* TODO To change the template for this generated file go to
* Window - Preferences - Java - Code Style - Code Templates
*/

import java.util.*;

public class SendMail
{
    public static void send(String recipient, String subject, String
message, String from)
    {
        try
        {
            Properties props = new Properties();
            props.put("IP-ADDRESS", "IP-ADDRESS");

            Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance( props );

            Message msg = new MimeMessage( session );

            InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress( from );
            msg.setFrom( addressFrom );

            InternetAddress addressTo = new InternetAddress( recipient );
            msg.setRecipient( Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo );

            msg.setSubject( subject );
            msg.setContent( message, "text/html" );
            msg.saveChanges();

            Transport.send( msg );
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

And the following code sends the message:

SendMail.send("j.lendholt@sbxmgmt.com",betreff,nachricht,"info@sbxmgmt.com");

I hope I could make myself clear.

Thanks in advance!
