Which values are you referring to? I *guess* that nothing in the  
databases although it is possible that changes were made during a  
mysql-upgrade in the last time. But I know that I didn't make any  
changes to databases myself. I am not a DB-specialist but I can see  
that all tables in the horde-related DBs have the collation set to  
"utf8_general_ci". Can you tell me how to find out if the values in  
the DB have the wrong charset?

But apart from that, should the error also occur if the recipient's  
name does not contain any special chars like umlauts? It's only a guess.
