Public bug reported: After upgrade from Ubuntu 10.04 to 14.04 mailman has a nasty bug: It changes the mail encoding to:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 even if the incoming mail has: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii This happens only if the list configuration has a non-empty "msg_footer"! When I delete "msg_footer" in the list settings, the mails will not be recoded. But I would like to keep the "msg_footer". The default "msg_footer" was in ASCII, too, nevertheless the mail was recoded to utf-8/base64. This is a (new) bug, in my opinion! ** Affects: mailman (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mailman in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1456588 Title: mailman msg_footer changes mail encoding To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mailman/+bug/1456588/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
