Thanks for the information. I've found that correctly encoded headers (= ? 
iso8859-1 ? q ? //// without blanks) are showing up correctly. When I got 
messages via certain mailing list software (e.g. the KDE bug tracking 
system) then the "X" is showing up.
Previously we used sendmail where we had not that problem. My boss is very 
upset because of the "unreadable" addresses. I can understand him. ;-)

How can we modify the Cyrus configuration to keep the characters (whose are 
certainly 8bit chars)?

TIA,
Andreas
