> Hello
> We have problem with confirm mail when mail body contains
> characters out of ascii code (range(128)). Mailman version
> is 2.1.5 . I think Mailman could leave the body unread
> when Subject contains the confirm code or at least it should
> stop to "end" line. If Mailman wants to check through the body
> it would be fair not to bug with the non-ascii codes.
> People have auto-signatures with different character codes and
> they may have automatic copy of the original mail as citation
> (quotation). Mailmans request for confirmation contains non-ascii
> code if the language code of the list is such.
