I see. Then it makes better sense, especially because $LANG is set to Danish together with most of the LC_'s: titanus@machine:~$ locale LANG=da_DK.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_TIME="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_NAME="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="da_DK.UTF-8" LC_ALL= > > However, when Postfix returns a answer after 4 hours plus some, the > > localized letters are gone.

I have tried to set the charset of bounce.cf to UTF-8 and then sent a few mails to the server to test it. When a bounce returns we'll know if UTF-8 did the trick. Thanks for the help so far and the additional information.
