You must also have a unicode string inside the tag - that is the only condition for dtml to create unicode output.

I guess the right behaviour here is for the tag to sniff some headers and perform an encoding, the same way ZPublisher does for http responses. This is not candidate for 2.6.x.

I cannot reproduce this error with 2.6-HEAD on linux. I tried:

<dtml-sendmail mailhost=MailHost>
To: me@myserver.de
Subject: Just a Test
From: zope@localhost

© hällo wörld è
</dtml-sendmail>

try to use <dtml-sendmail ...> ... </dtml-sendmail> working perfect on Zope 2.5.1 we obtain the error

'expected string, unicode found'

when the text message included between <dtml-sendmail> pairs contain some caracter with code greater then 127 as for example some charcater from italian alphabeth (e whith accent è, ecc.)
