German umlauts and other special characters in email subjects are converted to HTML entities
When a response title contains german umlauts (ü ö ä Ä Ü Ö ß) or other special characters (e. g. quotes), they appear as HTML entities in the email subject.
For example, one of our response titles is
- Muss ich den Führerschein "privater" Fahrer kontrollieren?
– containing a "ü" and also the quotes around "privater".
When an email notification for that response is sent, the email subject says
- Auf Ihre Frage "Muss ich den Führerschein "privater" Fahrer kontrollieren?" wurde geantwortet
– the "ü" has been converted to its HTML entity, "ü", same with the quotes (""").
We're on IIS and use SMTP to send emails. Any clue?

Hi Stas,
we finally got around to implement the patch you sent and are happy to report everything works fine now! We're wondering why this wasn't included in the 2.1 update, though?
Thanks again!

Guido,
We didn't include it as 2.1 release was live already by the time the patch was provided
