Hi,

I haven't found a possibility to exchange german messages including 
Umlauts (äöüßÄÖÜ). Whatever charset I choose in options (but as I might 
have read lately, this only applies to the contacts in main window?), 
either the chars I _receive_ are replaced by a square or not shown  (I 
had blanks as well as no chars at all).

This happens at home, where I am using licq 1.3.2 with SUSE Linux 10, as 
well as under a manually compiled licq 1.3.2 under Debian at work 
(versions from oss.erdfunkstelle.de). At home my standard system 
charset is LANG=UTF-8, LC_TYPE=de_DE.UTF-8, at work LC_CTYPE and LANG 
are just POSIX, i. e. us-ascii is standard(?).

Most of my friends are using Trillian on Windows. I didn't test it with 
other clients so far.

Is there a solution to this problem? Do I have to start licq with 
something like
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]> LANG=de_DE.iso8859-1 licq
or -15?

Regards,

René
