    Getting “wrong” characters when using csv export with Excel 2010.

    Fixed it by adding an UTF-8 BOM and charset=UTF-8 as described here in file /inc/exportcsv.php.

    Thanks for great plugin.

    Hi Ov3rfly,

    Thanks for that ??

    The only thing I’ve been unable to get work regarding your suggestion was that the BOM didn’t seem to be added correctly. I was able to add the charset mind, which will be included in the next release.

    Encoding in 3.3.2 does not work. There also are duplicate header() values.

    Find a fixed /inc/exportcsv.php for 3.3.2 here at pastebin.

    Hi Ov3rfly.

    I’m looking to include this into the next version of WP Email Capture. Should be released in the week or so.

    Thanks again!
