No.

I already deleted this thread (since it didn't seem all too interesting
to me ;), but unless I am seriously mistaken and my memory plays foul
trick on me:  The quoted header in question is X-Spam-Report, and the
German Umlauts appeared as part of the rule description.

This text does not come from the original message unquoted, but is a
part of the (localized) SA rules.


Interestingly, 'file' reports 30_text_de.cf to be ISO-8859 English text
on my SA 3.2.0 installation. Did this change till 3.2.3? Are these
custom changed descriptions?
