HTML numeric character entities not displayed in 7.0.2?

Hi,

Some Notes 7.0.2 users of ours have reported problems seeing accented characters in HTML emails. When the HTML contains Ä Ü Ö (the numeric encodings for Ä Ü Ö), it renders as ?xC4;?xDC;?xD6;:

http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-12151

When those chars are not HTML-escaped, they render fine.

Has anyone seen this before? I’ve searched the forums and support site but come across anything relevant.

Thanks,

Jeff
