I'm writing a lightweight webmail in PHP, Dolda Webmail 
(<http://sf.net/projects/doldawebmail>), and I'm having some trouble with the iconv 
function provided by PHP.

The problem is that when it encounters a multibyte sequence that cannot be decoded 
(like in an erroneously encoded message), it just stops there and returns the string 
up to that point, and I have not been able to find out any way of detecting that an 
error has indeed occurred. This is causing me a great deal of trouble...

Does iconv provide a way of detecting if an error has occurred, and if so, how?

Thanks for your attention!
