Mmmh. So is this "won't fix"? No one?
The encoding of the welcome-message is wrong, regardless of the localization settings. The list server's language is (in this case) German, the list's default language is German, everything is then localized correctly (also the subject) with the very notable exception of the welcome-message, which seems to be hard-coded to us-ascii, every "special" character is replaced by a question mark.
As everything else works I assume that this is a bug in mailman v3.
The only work-around that I see here (besides of digging into the source code) is to manually replace "special" characters by localized replacements (e.g. รค by ae etc).
Is there any other work-around?
Kind thanks

Hi,
I know there are already some posts on this subject. From reading the following seems to be the state of the affair:
the list's language settings determines which localized template to use
the list-_servers_ default setting determines which language to use for the subject (so the subject's language is a "global" server configuration setting).
Still, in my Ubuntu Impish Mailman 3.3.3 installation the welcome message is sent with charset us-ascii and contains question marks for any "special" -- i.e. non-ascii -- character.
Can this be changed s.t. the welcome message is correctly displayed?
Kind thanks
Claus
