received passkey is invalid

The passkey looks like bullshit, Client isn't be able to handle.
That's what I received by mail from passkey-page:

Code: Select all

Do you have a different character set selected on your system or mail client? The mail message is sent in plain ascii text, the passkey itself is a 32 digit hexadecimal string.

Suitably altered, this is what I received when I tested several days ago:
Hello 'username',

Username: 'username'
Passkey: 'passkey'

Please use these to activate your client.


Thank you,

My CHR-Set on PC is '850'.
Looks lik the Mail-Ckient Outlook 2016 is producing bullshit.
I loged in on Domainfactory-Webmail and the Content of the mail Looks OK as plain text.
But if I use the plain text with past and copy, the FAHcontrol reqesting a 32 character hex string.
The plain text I received is far away from 32 character:

Code: Select all
