To use the Exchange Management Shell to configure character settings for Outlook Web Access

1. Run the following command to configure Outlook Web Access to always use UTF-8 encoded UNICODE characters on all outgoing e-mail messages:

   	Copy Code
   Set-OwaVirtualDirectory -identity "Owa (Default Web Site)" -OutboundCharset AlwaysUTF8

Note:
The AlwaysUTF8 character setting on the Outlook Web Access virtual directory takes precedence over user-defined settings. Outlook Web Access sets the UTF-8 character on all outgoing e-mail messages, regardless of the user's language choice in Outlook Web Access.

For more information about syntax and parameters, see Set-OwaVirtualDirectory.

For more information about character settings in Outlook Web Access, see Managing Outlook Web Access Advanced Features.

For information about how to set the default language setting in Outlook Web Access, see How to Configure Language Settings for Outlook Web Access.
