Hi all,

Jot does not seem to send headers in email notifications. This is a problem for outlook, as this app does not automatically recognizes charset encoding.

I could not make it adding
```
'Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"'."\n"
```
to the email notification creation in jot.class.inc.php.
```
mail($user["email"], $this->config["subject"]["moderate"], $message, "From: ".$modx->config['emailsender']."\r\n"."X-Mailer: Content Manager - PHP/".phpversion(),'Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"'."\n");
```
I did it wrong ??

OK I made it... the problem was that I defined some headers after

"X-Mailer: Content Manager - PHP/".phpversion()

so I just passed it before.

The solution to get uft-8 notification emails in jot 1.1.2 (I could not make email notifications work in jot 1.1.4) :

     
$headers .='Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"'."\n";
$headers .='Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit'; 
mail($user["email"], $this->config["subject"]["subscribe"], $message, $headers, "From: ".$modx->config['emailsender']."\r\n"."X-Mailer: Content Manager - PHP/".phpversion(),$headers);

to add after :

						if ($this->config["user"]["id"] != $subscriptions[$i]["userid"] ) {
							$user = $this->getUserInfo($subscriptions[$i]["userid"]);
							$tpl = new CChunkie($this->templates["notify"]);
							$tpl->AddVar('jot',$this->config);
							$tpl->AddVar('comment',$comment);
							$tpl->AddVar('siteurl',"http://".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]);
							$tpl->AddVar('recipient',$user);
							$message = $tpl->Render();

and after :

			foreach ($moderators as $moderator){
				$user = $modx->getWebUserInfo($moderator);
				$tpl = new CChunkie($this->templates["notifymoderator"]);
				$tpl->AddVar('jot',$this->config);
				$tpl->AddVar('comment',$comment);
				$tpl->AddVar('siteurl',"http://".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]);
				$tpl->AddVar('recipient',$user);
				$message = $tpl->Render();
