Regarding the language you might be right, using 'locale' gives me
some non-standard locale. So how to get the english (decodable as
ascii) original/default message? If I would know the error raised,
I could check the error message for problematic chars and try to
avoid this...

Would a 'locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'en_US')' in front of the
problematic output help at all?
Thank for your answer! Greetings
