The easiest thing is to do the comparison as 8-bit strings rather than
Unicode strings:
if string.find(m.get('from'), e.encode("Latin-1")):
or both as Unicode strings:
if string.find(unicode(m.get('from'), "Latin-1"), e):
Some of us have fought a losing war to make Python do that for you
automatically but the opposition is fierce, well organized and well
funded. ;)
