Summary: Uncaught runner exception

Initial Comment:
In 2.1.5 Apparently some email message characters can 
crash the Runner.py.  I have inserted $mailman in place 
of my mailman path in the message below from 
$mailman/logs/error

This error was fixed in source in 2.1.6 by catching and
passing the UnicodeError exception. See bug 909490 which is
the same problem.

If you are seeing this error in 2.1.6, it must be coming
from somewhere other than CommandRunner calling make_header.

I suggest you try to get a resolution by posting your
specific error trace to mailman-users at python.org.

I'm closing this report.

I'm seeing this in 2.1.6 as well.  We are running Debian
Sarge.  Any word on getting this resolved?

Do you need some additional information for debugging this
one, I've over 200 mails stuck on shunts. AFAIK this is
quite fatal bug, emails just disappear and nobody gets
notification.
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xf6 in
position 10: ordinal not in range(128)

Mailman 2.1.5 and python 2.3.4 on Solaris 8.
