I have got a feeling of getting closer. The mails that produce errors all have "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit" in the mail header. But they are composed by different mail clients (eg "The Bat!", or IMP/Horde webmail). I succeeded in reproducing the error with my own mail-client. When the client is switched to "treat 8bit chars as quoted printable" everything is fine. But 8bit encoding seemd to break my mailman. BTW: the MTA is postfix 1.1.11 which is 8bitmime capable. So that should not be the limiting problem. The problem is more that I am not very familiar with all that MIME-stuff. Is there an easy way to make mailman ignore these strange 8bit chars? Or maybe to convert to 7bit during delivery?
