Hi!

We have upgraded an old Kannel server to latest cvs and have some
trouble handling charsets.  As I understand, earlier ISO-8859-1 was
standard charset but now UTF-8 is standard.

Our SMPP link has ISO-8859-1 as charset and this works well,
alt-charset is set and smsbox delivers the SMSes correctly, although
in the access_log since the upgrade the Swedish characters can't be
viewed. (Shown has dots).

More of a problem is the fact that we can't send through the CGI
sendsms interface anymore, all swedish characters does get corrupted
and adding charset=latin1 (as prosposed in a mail from alxeander
malysh in a mail when he submitted the patch to convert) is not
working, we get an error saying "Charset or body misformed, rejected".
We can't convert all applications sending in ISO-8859-1 to send in
UTF-8, it must be possible to send ISO-8859-1 to /sendsms ?

Kind Regards,
Stefan Cars
