Comment:

 You're only getting a unicode decode error here because you've put unicode
 content into a byte string.

 If you use:

 {{{
 subject = u'Über"
 }}}

 i.e., you correctly identify the string as unicode, you won't get an
 error. `mail_admin()` handles unicode content just fine. What you've
 described here is a simple case of Garbage In, Garbage Out.
