Comment (by lithium):
rpolach, you said this in the original report:
"One of users of QIP tells me that other recipients of his messages (using
official ICQ clients) do not have my problem."
This is true I think, I also asked the QIP users this questions and no
official-client user seems to have the problem we see. This brings us to
another thing you mentioned:
"Also if message from QIP is sent to me when I am offline (and then it is
stored on ICQ server) it is later delivered with correct coding (no
cyrillic characters)."
Now, this is interesting... havn't tested this myself but if it was true,
then perhaps this would explain why official-icq users don't see the
problem? ICQ is not using OSCAR afaik, perhaps the official icq server
does some message reformatting/fixing and this is also done for offline
msgs? Only a vague guess but the whole issue is strange.
Can we get a milestone 2.3.0 or something here?
