I can send to self and to here with unicode with no
problems. She claims that she can read other peoples
letters just fine. The same problem occurs to the swedish
letters åäö as well.

Any suggestions what can be wrong and how to kill it?

Well, you're using Outlook Express and UTF-8 character encoding. If she
can change her decoding to UTF-8, she should be able to read both the
Swedish and the Japanese.

If she can't, ask her what encoding she is using.
