Package: devscripts
Version: 2.22.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

My 'nmudiff's get rejected with:
> <sub...@bugs.debian.org>: host buxtehude.debian.org[209.87.16.39] said: 550
>    improper use of 8-bit data in message header: message rejected (in reply to

i'm not using 'mutt', and my name (as used in the "From:" line) contains 
non-ASCII characters
(namely: "ö").

Replacing the non-ASCII character with an ASCII translitaration, makes
the problem disappear.

it would be great if 'nmudiff' could properly escape header-fields to
allow people with names from languages that extend the english alphabeth
to participate without going through hoops.


anyhow: thanks for maintaining this super-useful package.
