The link talks about stripping the offending character -- which would
break the content in some cases (including mine).
Maybe, it is time deliver is modified to do the right thing -- and
re-encode if it really has to? Or, perhaps, imapd can do the re-encoding
on the fly so that the images on the disk can keep these characters the
way /var/mail/mboxes can?
