Hi,
I have a charset encoding problem that I'm unable to solve. I've been reading FAQs and list archives with little success.
Our lists are in Finnish. The setup: our mailman installation uses its own translation file that is different from the Finnish translation that comes with the release. Because of that, mailman is on hold, and gets upgraded manually so that we can msfmt our own mailman.po.
We have been running 2.15, on Debian, but because of the DMARC situation it's time to upgrade to 2.18..
Our upgrades have been rather routine so far, but this time we ran into problems. Suddenly, the character encoding was producing quite unreadable interfaces.
Believing that the translation file was now supposed to be in utf-8 instead of iso-8859-1 I tried to re-encode all relevant files and change the mm_cfg.py values accordingly. This did not help at all.
I've tried to check whether there have been any changes to mailman that could explain this, but no luck.
