Have done this using the Debian package, following their
instructions, using the cgi method (not standalone server).
Didn't understand about step 2. since the "nosyreaction.py"
was already installed in the "demo/detectors" directory
(differing from the one in the "templates" directory only by
an added SHA checksum).

Still no UTF-8 chars in the mail.

Here is the package information. None of the suggested
packages are installed:
