Hi Lisa, thanks for the screenshot. Reproduced with a test person called Jürgen: the name is right in the email itself but garbled in the subject. Passing it to engineering.

ENG-1655. notifier writes the Subject header raw instead of encoding it (RFC 2047), so Outlook reads it as Latin-1. Small fix in the mail builder. Every customer with non-ASCII names is affected; Almwerk and Vossberg most.

Fixed this morning: subjects now show names as they should. Thanks for reporting it.

Passt, danke.
