!MailNotifier assumes utf-8, but that guess seems wrong in this case.

{{{LOG_ENCODING}}} is set near the top of mail.py. Otherwise, you can
change line 584 to read

encoding when they come *in* to buildbot, rather than being stored as
bytestrings :(
The suggested change solves the problem but (at least in my environment)
the named parameter (errors) raises an exception.
This
{{{
text = text.decode(LOG_ENCODING, 'replace')
}}}
works!
