I'm having similar problems with PyICQt. I suspect that they're fixed in newer versions of Python & libs than I have (Python 2.3 & Twisted 1.3.0), since others do not seem to have this issue. When I try to add someone with PyICQt, I get this exception: http://haar.student.utwente.nl/~julius/PyICQt-UnicodeDecodeError Regards, Julius _______________________________________________ py-transports mailing list py-transports@blathersource.org http://lists.modevia.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/py-transports
