Hi,

Here's a possible fix - not tested.

Near the bottom of chronocontact.php there's a few lines of code that output an html header for the e-mail, try adding the extra <meta> tag in there

"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN\">
<html>
<head>							  <title></title>
<base href=\"$mosConfig_live_site/\" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; <?php echo _ISO; ?>" />
<style type=\"text/css\">
 ".strip_tags( $chronocontact_params->get('newsletter_css'))."
</style>
</head>
<body>$html_message</body></html>";
