[Mailman-Users] Re: senddigests -> LookupError: unknown encoding

[VLists.Net Support]

Found it.  I'm not a Python programmer, so this had me befuddled until I
looked at ToDigest.py for a bit and reasoned it out.

Seems the first message in the digest.mbox file had the following header:

Content-Type: text/plain;
	charset="Windows-1252"

I edited it in place, replacing it with...

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

and the problem went away.

Now the two questions I have are....  1.) was the error due to the charset
value, or the newline/tab sequence in the header line itself, and 2.) once
I have the answer to #1, how do I fix that?

Thanks.
