Umlauts and other non ASCII chars are not correctly supported.
There are 2 problems to solve:
1. ldap encoding (for qmail-ldap all ldap fields are ascii encoded and
need no special handling)
2. mail encoding (allmost all operating systems use different encodings so
mails need a correct Content-Type header field and a correctly encoded
mail)

At the moment I know that for 1 the ldap docu could help and for porblem 2
a new reply program needs to be written and a few rfc need to read.
