Hello Michael,

When I look a that nodelist, the line above looks fine as:

,208,-=P=I=X=-,Säve,Björn_Felten,46-31-960447,9600,CM,XA,V34

In otherwords, I see the a with the 2 dots in "Säve", and the o with the
2 dots in "Björn" as they should be.


But the 2nd line following the Zone,2 line *does* look like a fail:

Zone,2,Eur_(024),B,Ward_Dossche,-Unpublished-,300,CM,MO,INA:many-glacier...
,2,Fidonews_Editor,Sweden,Björn_Felten,46-31-960447,33600,CM,XA,V34,INA...

Seems to me that your program should be reporting *that* line.


(I'll try to send a copy of this to you in email incase the jamnntp
breaks something in the chars conversion.)
