Filename is malformed when sending file to FTP.

Question

A 3rd party medium connecting to an FTP server hosted in IIS (Internet Information Services), attempts to send file to the FTP server directly with a Localized filename (e.g. Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc.). The filename of the file placed on the FTP server is malformed and has garbage characters.

• Expected filename: しししくくく00000120241004015037.pdf
• Filename in the FTP server: つつくく00000120241004015037.pdf

Confirmations:

• The 3rd party medium has verified that the filename information that it sent is as expected in UTF-8 3 byte correctly.
• IIS FTP server configuration "Accepts UTF-8" is already set to "true".
