Hi All,
Been using roundcube for a while, but have just struck an issue with RC1 during a server migration which I can't seem to find a desirable solution to. The problem I am having is that character conversion is failing totally using mbstring or iconv. If mbstring is used I get a blank white page with this PHP warning;
PHP Warning: mb_convert_encoding() [<a href='function.mb-convert-encoding'>function.mb-convert-encoding</a>]: Illegal character encoding specified in X:\path\to\roundcube\program\include\main.inc on line 924
I found a few others reporting this issue on the forums, and have commented out the relevant mbstring code so as to force iconv conversion. I get a lot further using iconv (the users are actually able to log in), however when a user logs in the vast majority of their messages are displayed with the subject line of "(no subject)" and there also is no sender or date information. Opening any of these messages results in a blank frame, however it seems that everything works as it should for the few messages that are displayed properly. I've done some searching of the forums and have found someone else with the same problem here using iconv;

The work around this user used to get around the problem was to remove the iconv calls which were returning empty strings by utf8_encode(). I'm reluctant to take this route as Roundcube RC1 has been working perfectly on my existing server running IIS 6, PHP 4.4.4 (PHP FastCGI) MySQL 4.1 & hMailServer 4.3.1 and doing this would leave me with no character conversion functionality. Nothing is logged into my roundcube or php logs, and I'm starting to run out of ideas. I'd really appreciate any feedback. Here are the details of my new server which is having the trouble;
Windows 2K3 Server / IIS 6 PHP 5.2.3 (CGI non thread safe version) MySQL 5 mbstring loaded (but mbstring code commented out in roundcubes main.inc to force usage of iconv) iconv loaded as part of PHP 5 core hMailServer 4.4
Thanks very much!
