I18n issues like the above are better discussed on the mailman-i18n list <http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-i18n>. >But there is one (small) thing left: >If you look in [1] you will notice one incorrectly displayed character >(the ---next part---, in German ---n=E4chster Teil--- does not work in all >cases ([1] does not work, [2] does), altough all my editors say, the >umlaut is correctly declared... It looks like in [1] somehow the utf-8 encoded message got interpreted as some other character set (maybe iso-8859-1) and then got encoded again as utf-8 so that instead if the a with umlaut, you see the bytes of the utf-8 encoding of a with umulaut displayed as characters. This may be a scrubber issue of some kind, but I am not sure why it would occur with only one of two apparently structurally identical messages from the same poster, but here is a clue. I looked at the text file <https://secure.the-pojs.dyndns.org/pipermail/pojs-discussion/2006-November.txt>. While there are no Content-Type: headers in that file, I can see the encoding of the Subject: header. It appears that the 'bad' posts are 'original' posts and are iso-8859-1 encoded by the poster's (you) MUA, and the 'good' posts are 'replies' and are utf-8 encoded by the MUA. Thus it appears that there may be a scrubber issue when the character set of the incoming message is iso-8859-1 but the i18n translated canned messages are utf-8.
