    I'm using the administrative web interface at
https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/admindb/unsystem . Using
that interface, i see Message Headers which are fine, and Message
Excerpt. In the Message Excerpt there are parts that are readable, but
the content is just "?", for example:


-=-=-
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#ECEAE8" style="padding:15px"><p align="center">???????
??????, ?? ???? ??????????? ????????? <b>King & Country</b> ??????????
??????????????</p>
<p align="center"><b>King & Country-??? ???????, ??????? ? ??????? ?
???????????? ?????? ????????.</b></p>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"
style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:20px;">

    I couldn't agree more about the moderation and try to avoid it. And,
almost every one of these has been from non-members of the list. So, i'm
guessing that they are all spam. I regularly get email in utf8 and see
other languages just fine, but this interface doesn't show them. If i
get a message from a member that has been flagged, and all i see is "?",
i'm not sure what i will do.


    Thanks for your interest.


    By the way, i'm leaving for a month's vacation tonight. I'll be back
in September. I hope some of the other Moderators pick up the task.


    ciao bella
