Also a problem with scrivener, which is what was giving me grief.

Here's a solution if you still want davmail/scrivener: nip into
/var/lib/dpkg/available and /var/lib/dpkg/status then correct the bum
characters - I just removed them.

Protip: using gedit (sudo gedit) is not a bad idea: it highlights the
bad characters in red, plus you can do a search to get to
davmail/scrivener. Just select 'edit anyway' when it gives you a
warning.
