Hi Helge, Jan.

Npgsql only supports two encodings: ASCII (default) and UNICODE. If your
database is in any other encoding, like LATIN1, you should use encoding=UNICODE
in your connection string. Postgresql server will do the conversion
automagically for you.

I'm thinking about changing the default to UNICODE in order to avoid this
problem. We receive sometimes reports of problems like that. Sorry Jan. And
thanks Helge for providing the correct answer for this.
