Reply from /n software support:
Within Delphi, there is a UTF8Encode method that allows you to UTF-8 encode data which can then be used to set the MessageText property:
ipwHTMLMailer1.MessageText := UTF8Encode('Øß1');

However, most SMTP servers do not support 8-bit data and thus return errors when trying to use UTF-8. Therefore HTML encoding the message text is most likely what is wanted here. HTML encoding is not performed within the component itself, so this will have to be done prior to setting the MessageText property.
