Hi Alvaro,

Maybe you didn't get the email correctly. It was an e with grave
accent:, just like this:
è (UTF-8 encoded)
I just checked on PG 7.4.3 / NetBSD, with this results:
egrave=# CREATE TABLE test (data varchar(5));
CREATE
egrave=# show server_encoding ;
client_encoding
-----------------
UNICODE
(1 row)
egrave=# show client_encoding ; -- don't know why it is set to unicode
client_encoding
-----------------
UNICODE
(1 row)
egrave=# INSERT INTO test VALUES ('1234è');
egrave'# '\r
Query buffer reset (cleared).
egrave=# set client_encoding = 'ISO8859-1';
SET
egrave=# show client_encoding ;
client_encoding
-----------------
ISO8859-1
(1 row)
egrave=# INSERT INTO test VALUES ('1234è');
INSERT 25340 1
egrave=# SELECT * FROM test;
data
------
1234è
(1 row)
It seems all is working when client encoding is set correctly up. Try to
check you client and server encoding.
I've also double checked with:
egrave=# SET client_encoding = 'ISO8859-2';
SET
egrave=# SELECT * FROM test;
WARNING: ignoring unconvertible UTF-8 character 0xc3a8
data
------
1234
(1 row)
Best regards
