           Summary: Not all newsgroups use UTF8

          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: knode-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: liuspider at yahoo.com


Version:           0.7.2 (using KDE KDE 3.1.5)

line 115 in file knnntpclient.cpp (and many other places in the source codes)

name = QString::fromUtf8(line);

assumes all input from nntp is UTF8 encoded, but in China, we do always use other encodings, such as gbk etc.

So I think this should be an option: we can choose which encoding we are using to interpret the nntp inputs.
