Dear all, I am looking for a way to ensure that everything is in proper UTF-8 in the web interface Specifically, my problem is that messages from gettext for German are inserted in ISO-8859-1 while for other languages I have tested, including Norwegian and Russian, mailman seems to generate proper UTF-8, even without explicitly enabling UTF-8 in mm_cfg.py.
As an example, take https://lists.uferwerk.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/huehner "Um frühere Nachrichten an diese Liste zu sehen, besuchen Sie bitte das Archiv der Liste Huehner <https://lists.uferwerk.org/cgi-bin/mailman/private/huehner/>. (/Das aktuelle Archiv ist nur f�r die Abonnenten der Liste zug�nglich./)" When I inspect the source code of the German page, I see that part of the umlauts are properly encoded as html entities such as ü, ä and others are not, they are plain ISO-8819-1 and thusly get screwed up, when the browser interprets the page as UTF-8. They seem to be inserted on-the-fly by the python interpreter, from /var/lib/mailman/messages/de/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po and I notice that /var/lib/mailman/messages/de/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po is in ISO-8859-1, not in UTF-8. In mm_cfg.py I have done what the manual recommends <https://wiki.list.org/DOC/4.90%20My%20list%27s%20moderator%20interface%20and%20plain%20format%20digests%20have%20garbled%20non-ascii.%20Change%20English%20charset%20to%20utf-8.>. Without it, the message strings get rendered correctly, while the list descriptions from the configuration, which are apparently in UTF-8 get rendered as two letter strings: "*Huehner -- Liste für alle Hühner-Eltern im Uferwerk".* Can someone maybe tell me what I can do to reconcile this apparent mismatch? Thanks so much in advance, Johannes * * ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list -- mailman-users@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/ Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-users@python.org/
