[Mailman-Users] 8-bit email address

[David Birnbaum]

Jon,

I tried this, but the first one gives an immeidate Python syntax error,
the second one gives the same UnicodeError.  I have found the address -
and I know what the character is, but the unsubscribe fails both on the
web site and on the command line.

Other suggestions?

Thanks,

David.
