Well, it was only a _partial_ mis-interpretation.
As you may notice, the $send_charset variable Liviu refers to in his
message is _not_ present in the stable branch. So your setting of
charset to "ibm437" will actually lead to sending messages out to
the net which are tagged with that charset. Don't do this.
I'd suggest you rather try to fix your console settings.
