Hi Bert,

thank you for your prompt reply! I'll give that a try and see whether that works for everybody. "utf8" does work fine for me, but people on windows claim it breaks for them.

Best Regards,
Tobias

How

I think at least "UTF-8" as passed value should work.
That encoding name is hardcoded to avoid the entire conversion.

The other values might depend on what iconv settings are used by your
specific client.
