[Bug 1831321] [NEW] the List-Id field is filled without < and > around the list-id if the description contains unsupported characters

[Florian Schlegel]

Public bug reported:

According to rfc2919 the List-Id field should be formated like this:
list-id-header = "List-ID:" [phrase] "<" list-id ">" CRLF
This works as long as description is left blank or contains supported characters. In my case the description was as follows:
�ffentliche Supportliste
As you can see the umlaut "Ö" got broken while importing the list from an old server. Unfortunately I don't know how the import was done. The field is still present but < and > around the list-id are missing. This is problematic with procmail and other mail filters.
