how to use german-umlaut in mailreplytext?

[Kurz, Robert]

hello,

i use qmail with qmail-ldap-1.03-20020501a.patch and openldap-2.0.23.

everything works fine, except that if i want to include german-umlauts in
mailreplytext:

the text i put in "mailreplytext" is "test ���", and if i look at the field
with any ldap-browser, it looks fine (shows me: "mailReplyText: test ���").

but the reply-mail contains  "test öüä" and a lookup with
qmail-ldaplookup -m user shows

qldap_lookup:   succeeded, found:
                uid: user
                ...
                deliveryMode: localdelivery
                                 reply
                mailReplyText: test öüä


does anybody know, what to do? 


thanks for help

robert
