Email repsonses are being truncated after smiley :-)

When customers open a case in our G2A servicedesk, we often reply back via email. If we happen to insert a smiley, all text following the smiley is being omitted/purged. This happens when we reply using Outlook in HTML mode, where Outlook converts the smiley into a graphical icon (I type colon dash right paranthese, and Outlook converts it into a smiling face icon). G2A should be able to handle smileys :-)

    Hi Mark_P ,

    That text should only be displayed now when the system does not recognize a smileyface format.

    Hi, I've just tested this and it seems the issue is now fixed :smileyhappy: the emoticon in the message body appears as a "??" though, is this how it should be appearing? Thanks

    Mark_P   In the updated release there were some conflicts found, so we had to push this fix off for a couple more weeks.  As soon as I hear more info I will update this thread.
