The submitted solution does not seem to work with the current version (2.10.2), we still get the special chars..

In the German forum JenGermany reports that special characters like ä, ö, ü, are displayed as ä ö ü in the text version of an HTML message (see http://forums.phplist.com/viewtopic.php?t=6884 [^] )

The following fix apparently solved the problem:

In class.phplistmailer.php on line 61 (function add_text($text)) ,
change:
$this->Body = $text;

to this:
$this->Body = html_entity_decode($text ,ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8' );

Setup:
Phplist 2.10.3

configuration page:
Charset for HTML messages: UTF-8
Charset for Text messages: UTF-8

config.php:
define("TEXTEMAIL_ENCODING",'7bit');

I couldn't reproduce the problem on my installation, but I had USE_MANUAL_TEXT_PART enabled, which might perhaps account for that.

yes, I can confirm that. Annoying, I thought it had been fixed, but obviously not
