I think the priority of the mails themselves is much lower than that of the lists, because 8bit character in only one mail affects the whole month in a list. Anyway, I don't think the regeneration or modification is needed *now*, because our solution is not yet perfect. It is obviously waste of machine time to modify both *now* and in future when better solution will be available. I think more important problem is how to deal with raw 8bit mail headers without encoding specification or encodings which are not supported by the current set-up but used in Debian mailing lists (GB2312, BIG5, and KOI8-R). --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/
