Comment (by GroennDemon):

 I'm experiencing the problems mentioned in ticket #4980 ("Error receiving
 this message") with German umlauts and both a friend who uses some MacOS
 client and another friend who uses Pidgin 2.3.1. Encoding *should* be
 cp1252, at least I never had any problems before upgrading to Pidgin
 2.4.0. Upgrading to 2.4.1 did not help at all.

 Also, with another buddy who uses Trillian, umlauts are displayed as
 completely different characters. ä=d, ö=v etc.

 I'll try the workaround now, but please fix this.
