So it seems as if unicode conversion is broken somehow for offline messages?

I have set <encoding>utf-8</encoding>, so if that setting is used at all, I 
assume that encoding detection is broken exclusively for offline messages, and 
it just sends nothing instead of converting? Or the conversion itself is 
broken and returns nothing in certain cases?

I am trying <offline_messages_sendenc>0</offline_messages_sendenc> and 1 now, 
to figure out whether it is the detection logic, or the encoding conversion 
itself.

Greetings,
Dennis
