Steps to reproduce:

On Windows 10, TB 128.1.0 I sent an email that contains German umlauts which are special characters (like ä or ü or ö).

Actual results:

Recipient gets changes characters displayed, e.g. "für ändere" instead of "für ändere".

Expected results:

corrects characters should have been displayed, e.g. "für ändere"

Summary: gpg kills Germans umlauts e.g. ü, ä, characters changing vowel pronounciation) Windowss → gpg kills Germans umlauts e.g. ü, ä, characters changing vowel pronounciation) Windows

on Linux debian 12 bookworm with TB 115 all umlauts works fine

Summary: gpg kills Germans umlauts e.g. ü, ä, characters changing vowel pronounciation) Windows → gpg kills Germans umlauts e.g. ü, ä, characters changing vowel pronounciation on Windows
Summary: gpg kills Germans umlauts e.g. ü, ä, characters changing vowel pronounciation on Windows → gpg kills Germans umlauts e.g. ü, ä, characters changing vowel pronounciation; Windows

Will be fixed in 128.1.1. As a workaround, set pref mail.strictly_mime to true.
