Hi list,
I set up a mailman3 server and built a few lists to test.
When I set the list name using Chinese characters, the web site shows correctly. However in the subscribing welcome mail the list name was shown in question marks. Screenshot is here:
The name of the list from the screenshot seems to be zh-l10n@lists.linux.org.tw. The thing shown with ?s in the screenshot is the list's display_name (called Display name in Postorius).
The LANGUAGE_CODE settings.py (in Debian /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py) is set to zh-tw , and USE_I18N and USE_L10N are all set to True.
These settings are all for Django and have nothing to do with how the list welcome message is sent.
Is there any other setting I should look at?
The list's preferred_language setting (Postorius -> Settings -> List Identity -> Preferred Language. The list welcome message is encoded in Mailman's character set for the list's preferred_language. If this is English (USA), the character set is us-ascii. If it is set to Chinese (Taiwan), the character set is utf-8, and it should work.
