Yes, they do. But did I forget to tell you that I was once a ranking
authority on Oriental text encodings, with a book, a chapter in
another, and three magazine articles on the subject? :-) Of course I
cheated and invoked a decoder by hand, getting this:
订阅邮件列表 Chinese-Devotion 的确认通知
My Chinese student tells me that the order of the sentences doesn't
seem very Chinese (probably a literal translation from the English
version?), but that each sentence is perfectly intelligible. So I
think the problem is that for some reason Apple's mail client refused
to decode the UTF-8 and display Chinese, or something like that. The
mail as sent by Mailman is almost surely not corrupted.
It will take a day or two for me to get back to this, I have a very
busy day tomorrow (reporting deadline to my employer for Japanese
taxes).
