except that charset support for UTF-8, as well as US-ASCII, is mandatory. I don't know any libraries that convert to/from UTF-8 (though ASCII<->UTF-8 is obviously simple :) and though it's probably easy to roll your own for iso8859-1 I'm not sure if you had a solution in mind yet. Also, supporting the other character sets (like UW-IMAP does) is probably a lot trickier.
iconv() does it all, comes with glibc.
Um. Of course FreeBSD didn't have glibc, but iconv() is anyway pretty standard, man page says "Conforming to UNIX98". It comes as a separate library as well.
Yeah, I noticed the same thing :) But it still has to be a concious decision, as not all platforms come with libiconv and I wasn't sure what your target audience is, and might become.
BTW. does SquirrelMail also require THREAD extension? It's not much more different from SORT luckily.
It looks like it's optional. As a matter of fact, so is SORT :) But both would be very nice to have, not just for SquirrelMail.
