[spambayes-bugs] X-Spambayes-Exception problem

I've been running Spambayes for a while with great success. Recently, several 
messages, identified as spam through the web interface, get through my 
mailer's filter because no

  X-Spambayes-Classification: spam

header is added to the message. Instead, they have:

  X-Spambayes-Exception: exceptions.UnicodeError(ASCII decoding error: ordinal
          not in range(128)) in append() at
          /usr/lib/python2.2/email/Header.py line 230: ustr =
          unicode(s, incodec)

Several of them appear to have strange characters throughout the spam (weird 
encoding?), others are plain text. Spambayes id's them as spam, but somehow 
fails to tag them as such...

Advice?

Jon

PS- Thanks for a great program -- in spite of this bug, the spam that reaches 
my inbox is down 90% or better. Keep up the good work!
