This bug arises in the following situation:
DEBFULLNAME is not set, and
EMAIL is either unset or does not contain the name, and
getpwuid (reading /etc/passwd or some other source) returns a name
using an 8-bit encoding, and
the locale does not match the encoding of /etc/passwd or whatever
I agree partially...
DEBFULLNAME was not set
EMAIL was not set
getpwuid returned my name using an 8-bit encoding (UTF-8)
...but...
the locale does match the encoding of /etc/passwd...locale charmap
returns "UTF-8".
So there seems to be something missing here.
An alternative fix would be to verify before sending any mails that
the From header does indeed not contain any 8-bit characters and warn if
it does.
