Steps to reproduce:

I've set up alias and used the alias as my email on a website.

Actual results:

The forwarded email doesn't show correctly Czech characters and instead shows for example these characters:

V\u017een zkaznku, d\u011bkujeme za V\u0161 nkup

Expected results:

Show Czech characters correctly.

Hello. Thanks for filing this bug. I believe this bug is related to the issue filed on https://github.com/mozilla/fx-private-relay/issues/655 which is currently being worked on. Can you provide more details on the email such as the email headers? You can find the email headers on Gmail (if that's the email client you use) by following step 1 and 2 here. I am specifically looking for the ``

Content-Type
Content-Language
Content-Transfer-Encoding
Flags: needinfo?(jenicek)

Hello, thank you for your time. I am using ProtonMail and the requested headers are:

Content-Type: text/html
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

However, the headers don't include any reference to "Content-Language".

Is this information sufficient? I can send the whole headers section, but I am not sure which parts of the headers are safe to share on a forum (such as the PGP key) as to not compromise privacy/security (maybe I could send you privately).

If it helps, I can send you the content of the whole email compared to what it should look like correctly.

Thank you.

Also, I forgot to note that not all emails show Czech characters incorrectly and the headers section of these emails is identical, but I encountered this problem multiple times with emails from different websites.

The information you provided are sufficient. Thanks for providing more information. If you can provide the different websites you got the emails from that were broken that will be helpful as well. Otherwise, I will follow-up with a fix on https://github.com/mozilla/fx-private-relay/issues/655.

Fix should be in now. Can you try relaying the email that was broken and let me know if it works?

Hi, I checked emails from two different websites that were previously broken and they are now showing the characters correctly, so everything seems to be working well now, thank you for the fix.

If I encounter the problem again, I will let you know.

BTW: thanks for this service, I am loving it so far ;).
