[Mailman-i18n] Archiving problem

Hi

We are running Mailman at sindominio.net (Barry: you can add us to
http://www.list.org/inthenews.html in you want to).

We have an archiving problem, that python.org seems to have as well.

If you go to
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-i18n/2001-June/date.html
you will see the June messages index, including this one:

[Mailman-i18n] German translation available?
=?iso-8859-1?Q?Wilfried_G=F6dert?= 

You see, it says "=?iso-8859-1?Q?Wilfried_G=F6dert?=" instead of "Wilfried
Gödert".

I think this would be solved modifying Defaults.py so that the iso-latin-1
characters are converted to html entities:
   DEFAULT_CHARSET = ['iso-8859-1']
   VERBATIM_ENCODING = ['iso-8859-1']
(Please confirm this is the correct syntax, as we have to implement it).

But what about if a site is running 2 lists, one in Spanish and other one in
Japanese?

Thanks,
 Quique
