Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

  I'd like for the dak instalation in ftp-master to set the Content-Type
  of outgoing mail which contains .changes file to "text/plain;
  charset=utf-8". At the moment, this header is not added at all, which
  makes it difficult to read non-ascii characters in MUAs without
  resorting to configuration tricks.

  The rationale for picking utf-8 is that .changes file will be either
  plain ASCII, which is valud utf-8, or utf-8, since they are composed
  from debian/changelog and debian/control, which are supposed to be in
  utf-8 if they're not plain ASCII.

  A "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit" header should be added as well if
  Content-Type is added.

  Thanks in advance,

Everything you read in newspapers is absolutely true, except for that
rare story of which you happen to have first-hand knowledge.
