The msgtext argument in 'self._connection.sendmail(envsender, recipients, msgtext)' is supposed to be a string containing only ascii characters.

      Hi Mark.
This was originally from another thread https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/message/..., but as it isn't related to the problem in the thread, I'll split it in another thread.

In addition, the log contains other trace backs that might or might not associate to this problem:

This may be a bug. The msgtext argument in
'self._connection.sendmail(envsender, recipients, msgtext)' is supposed
to be a string containing only ascii characters. I'm interested in
what's in Mailman's
var/queue/shunt/1506287488.0529234+cbf8a31cad265a40a18e8955be0c9ad8b48a1b66.pck.
You may be able to print the contents with Mailman's
bin/mailman queue
var/queue/shunt/1506287488.0529234+cbf8a31cad265a40a18e8955be0c9ad8b48a1b66.pck
There shouldn't be raw unicodes like \udcea in the text of the message,
but we should defend against that anyway.
