You can see the non-ASCII surname fine because you are responding to my
reply, which I sent via Alpine.

The original mail was sent by GitGitGadget via nodemailer, using GMail's
SMTP end point, and the fact that _I_ received it means that it was
partially successful in delivering that mail.

I can only assume that GMX or Alpine did something to the mail that made
it look better to vger.

So I have a theory now why vger regurgitated on that mail: it had the
unquoted name brian m. carlson in the Cc: line.

Expecting that this is the culprit, I opened
https://github.com/gitgitgadget/gitgitgadget/pull/98 to fix that.

Thanks,
Dscho
