Sorry, I'm quite new in the list, so I missed your announcement.
Anyway, it's not a problem at all. This codepage fiddling is awful...
What does double-byte charsets mean? multi byte charsets aka. unicode?

Great. BTW, a new problem arose with QXP, which is reported in my
"One more QXP problem" mail. I will try to get some traces of it
this week, but it seems somewhere to be related to the problem
mentioned above? (I don't understand enough of AT, are there some
useful docs available?)

AFAIK you can easily provoke this habit this way with 2.1.4-39...
Haven't checked other ways, yet. May I? I would like to see the
related auto refresh working all the time.

Would you like to discuss the problem (again) and what needs to be done?

Sorry for the bulk of questions from a netatalk rookie.

Nevertheless, I hope to help you improving this project up to the
point, where it fulfills every ones needs (as it feels not to
far away from it).
