Package: sympa
Version: 4.1.5-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patchi upstream

When sending an UTF-8 encoded mail subject or sender name, Sympa correctly MIME
decodes it but lose the associated charset information.  Then when the message
is sent to the list or archived, this subject or sender name field is wrongly
MIME encoded, using the list default charset (deduced from the list language)
instead of the original charset.
