Re: cannot attach files in sogo webmail with non ascii symbols in filename

Thanks for your advice! That worked for me:
# cat /etc/login.conf.d/sogod
sogod:\
:openfiles-cur=1024:\
:openfiles-max=2048:\
:setenv=GNUSTEP_STRING_ENCODING=NSUTF8StringEncoding:\
:tc=daemon:

I still think it might be worth mentioning this problem
and possible solution at least in the pkg-readme
