Summary: Wrong encoding in ICQ Away message
Product: [Unmaintained] kopete Reporter: Clemens John <clemens.john>

Description Clemens John 2011-02-17 20:01:11 UTC 
Version:           1.0.80 (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

If I set an away message for my ICQ Account in Kopete, then my chat partner (using windows Vista with the original ICQ client) does not see the message corectly.

For example if I write the german word "süßen" in the away message, than my chat partner gets "sA1/4AYen".

I think that´s an encoding problem betwen linux/windows or kopete/original icq client.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Set an away message with umlauts like "äöüß" on your linux machine in your icq account in kopete and look how the message looks like on the windows vista machine with the original icq client of your chat partner.
