Remarkable - being able to change the character set through the forum admin! I find a lot of things about this forum very interesting.

I checked the properties of fud30_index and found that it is already UTF8 Shocked I guess that means a programmatic solution?

The news pull stopped again and I'm sure it was also due to a non-standard character in the subject line. This time it might be a Spanish post that caused it to cough.

A search on Google for some of the text (Id� del suceso: 36871) seems to show that it was a Spanish post.

That caused me to think, maybe he's using a spanish-specific character such as an upside down exclamation mark or a letter with a hat Laughing

So, my theory is, if a foreigner made a post with a subject line that used non-standard characters maybe that will also cause the NNTP pull to cough up an error and stop?

This is the most recent error that seems to indicate a Spanish post;

When I check Google for that post it shows many similar posts - all of them in Spanish.
