[Apple List Admin] Re: using non-ascii chars on this mailing list

Hi all,

Unfortunately, the problem is not as simple as this thread makes it out to be. We have discussed this issue on several lists, including this one, a number of times, and would greatly appreciate a quick end to this thread.

The problem is a problem with our third party mailing list software. There is not currently a fix for the problem, though we have been told one is in progress. As soon as the issue is fixed, we will make a public announcement.

Please feel free to contact me privately if you have any additional questions.

Couldn't the manager of this list add a simple

work, don't?

The root cause of this problem is that the list server is configured to do what it's not supposed to do (converting messages). If the list manager reconfigure the list server to let all messages through as they are, that will be the fundamental (and easiest and most simple) solution. A mailperson should only deliver a message, not open a message and rewrite it.
