[issue6832] Outputting unicode crushes when printing to file on Linux

[Jerzy]

New submission from Jerzy <jerzyo at genesilico.pl>:

Hi

When I am outputting unicode strings to terminal my script works OK, but
when I redirect it to file I get a crash:

$ python mailing/message_sender.py -l Bia
Białystok

$ python mailing/message_sender.py -l Bia > ~/tmp/aaa.txt 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "mailing/message_sender.py", line 71, in <module>
    list_groups(unicode(args[0],'utf-8'))
  File "mailing/message_sender.py", line 53, in list_groups
    print group[1].name
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0142' in
position 3: ordinal not in range(128)
