Comment (by reh):

 I analyzed the problem with the wrong german umlauts (see Tafkadasom2k5's
 post). It seems that the crap ICQ 5.1 client sends the away message in
 UTF-8 although it says >>> text/x-aolrtf; charset="iso-8859-1" <<< in the
 received packet. Don't know how to workaround this bug. Maybe we have to
 somehow figure out the client used or we always interpret it as UTF-8
 (this could break other stuff).
