Bug Description
to some ftp servers I can't connect no more since release 8.04 (with places->connect to server), I get a "invalid answer" message.
With every other ftp-client (also in the shell) I can connect without problems to the same server. It seems
to be a problem only on some servers, the other work normal.
With filezilla I compared the messages coming from the working and the not-working servers, and it looks
exactly the same. I even tried to connect to the server using the IP instead of the URL, without success.
Could it be that the problem is some chracter-encoding issue?
I would rellay love to have this working, because I like to work directly on ftp for web-developping, and
there's no editor with a really handy ftp-support (like I know from ultraedit in windows). Bluefish can
work directly on ftp itself, but the bookmarking of the servers is quite nasty.
