Hi, I just noticed this problem as well and tried to hunt it down. Python's message module always seems to encode mails with base64 if utf-8 is given as charset. This is a bit unfortunate as there is no easy way to fix it (at least as far as I can see it).
Personally, I'd vote to just not indicate the charset. This will result in a malformed mail, as "Content-Type" will not be set, but most MUA will be able to deal with this. Regards, Wolf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
