Where is it raising the exception? Which line of code in particular. You
should be able to pass Unicode objects to the mail code (in fact, in
[1], I do just that for pretty much all the fields -- that was generated
using Django's email code).
Reading the code, I can't see anything special about mail_managers()
that would cause problems. So if you can past the full traceback that
will probably help work out what might be going on.
Also, what is repr(sbj) just before you call mail_managers()?
