[kopete] german chars on icq protocol

how comes that i can send german chars via icq protocol but can't receive them properly?
no other protocol makes the probs beside icq. (kopete 0.12.1)
i had no time to test chrs of other languages. but it might be the same problem.

thx
raider

be sure you've set up your custom encoding for your contacts correctly.

RE: [kopete] german chars on icq protocol

i did mate. my friends are using trillian with a windows encoding 1252.
i tried windows1251, iso8859-1 and uft-8. the latest always worked before.
my system wide encoding is PL_pl with utf-8.
i have here 3 keybord layots: german, polish and us-american.
usually i had no problems beside some strange encodings in knode from time to time.
the system is SUSE Enterprise Desktop 10 (sled) with kde 3.5.4 and kopete 0.12.1 (kopete is compiled from tarball).

so the only problem is with icq-protocol and i can't find the sorce of it.

thx

Try setting your encoding to iso8859-15. Using this encoding worked fine for me.
