Hi there,
I have a controller that sends an email. But the email received always comes through as Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8, even though I have the controller and config set to send html email as follows;
Code: $this->load->library('email');
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
$config['newline'] = "\r\n";
$this->email->initialize($config);
Anyone else had this problem? :S

try to debug you email with $this->email->print_debugger() and check config you are setting proper or not

What does $this->email->print_debugger() say?
edit: umefarooq beat me to it

Debugger isn't actually showing me anything.

Can you post more of your code? At least all the lines about
sending the mail. It's strange that your call to
Code: $this->email->print_debugger()
doesn't output anything.
Maybe the order of your lines messed up by accident?
Here what I had in a project a while ago:
Code: $this->load->library('email');
$config['wordwrap'] = FALSE;
$this->email->initialize($config);
$this->email->from('[email protected]', 'Me');
$this->email->to('[email protected]');
$this->email->subject('subject');
$this->email->message('message');
$this->email->send();
echo $this->email->print_debugger();I didn' set encoding to utf-8 but the debugging worked ...

From the UG: "If you send HTML email you must send it as a complete web page. Make sure you don't have any relative links or relative image paths otherwise they will not work."
So my next question would be... what are you setting as the message body of the email?

Some mail systems have trouble with utf-8
Try changing the charset to iso-8859-1 and see if it works.

Hi Hanabi,
