Hi Mads,

I'm very sorry that you are so frustrated. I have tried to reproduce the issue but it works for me either way. The danish letters are displayed properly in the newsletter composed in ChimpExpress and also when importing the newsletter back to wordpress they show up as they should.
Can you send me an admin login and ftp credentials to your site? pete@freakedout.de

Kind regards,
Pete

Hi Pete
Thanks for your patience. When I say frustrating Its just because I want it to work, not frustrated at the plugin as such - It's a great service. Don't know if you had the chance of logging in and trying but what I found out is that it only happens with content pasted in from other sources (which is what I was testing with). Not with content typed into wordpress, so i guess it's wordpress' handling of pasted content and not the plugin thats making the issue. Whatever the case may be I can now use the plugin for my site - and that's great news :)

Thanks again and sorry for any inconvience.

Hi Mads,

That's great news. I actually logged in to your site and tried it but it worked for me in all situations in different browsers. However, what you found out about pasting content sounds like a good hint to the source of the problem. Can you send me a source from which you copied the content?

Kind regards,
Pete

I have pasted fronm different sources. But the latest was from reader.google.com - One of my feeds. But else it has been from a webpage ex: zeldman.com & 37signals.com/svn/

Also it still only applies to the content - if i type special characters in the title it still shows up mangled in mailchimp.
