Environment
Novell Teaming 2
Novell GroupWise 8Situation
When you send via mail (a web link Send E-Mail) any item from your Teaming account to a recipient that has his First and/or Last names with extended characters, then the mail recipient will see a display name part of his email address as HTML formatted text.
Resolution
This has been reported to a development.
A current workaround is on Linux distributions to edit Catalina.sh file located in /opt/novell/teaming/<apache-tomcat-xxx>/bin. For Windows it's in both the catalina.bat and service.bat files.
Open the file and search for the string "-Dfile.encoding" and correct a value of the variable from incorrect "UTF8" into "UTF-8", i.e. it will look like:
-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
Then save the file and restart Teaming services.
