Yes, ASCII rules!

The long-term solution would be to patch Mailman (or whatever other
Python package it hands the work off to) to excise all non-ASCII
characters from processed messages (replace them with '?' maybe) and
only send 7-bit ASCII on the fanout under all circumstances - but that
would probably be a lot of work...
