[Mailman-Users] Bug report

[Mike Avery]

Hi,

One of my moderators was trying to delete a spam submitted by a 
non-subscriber.  And he got the following error.  I've attached the 
email message that triggered the error.  And I deleted the message from 
<home>mailman/data

It seems that the message subject has some non-ascii characters in it, 
and that's giving mailman fits.

Thanks,
Mike
