Not sure where to send this, who is responsible for the mail server
for gcc.gnu.org?

This was a message with illegal encoding. This is our rule:

  deny    senders       = \N[\x80-\xFF]\N
          message       = 8-bit characters not allowed in envelope sender\n\
                          (see RFC 2821, section 4.1.2)


The gcc.gnu.org mailserver should really not be accepting that mail either.

Thanks,
Ward.
