This is the "missing hyphen in iso8859-7" issue, right?  To answer the
question literally, at present we don't want to put this in Mailman
since the suggested code change is in Python.

A bug report to Mailman is unlikely to speed things up, since we want
this in Python, not in Mailman (we'd have to vendor the stdlib email
package).  If you file a bug with Python, I don't know whether this
would be picked up for Python 3.11 (already in beta), but since it's
arguably a bug (cite IANA registration, where the standard MIME
charset name is "ISO-8859-7", case-insensitive) it might be.  In that
case there would be a release in early October of this year.  Since
it's a bugfix it might be picked up for backport to any versions still
in maintenance.

If not, it would likely be in Python 3.12, scheduled for release in
early October of 2023.

Looking a little deeper at the ISO 8859 series of encodings in
cpython/Lib/encodings, *all* of them have a line of the form
"name='iso8859-$PARTNO'", not just iso8859_7.py.  So I don't
understand why this error hasn't happen for every ISO 8859 encoding a
million times a day since 2000 or whenever outlook.com came online.
They're not a small provider.

I will take another look at this but it may take some time.
