All you've proved is that a UTF-8 character set header gets through (none of your message was other than the ASCII subset of Unicode). You can't prove that everyone on the list has mail readers that understand UTF-8 and have suitable fonts available and selected . You haven't even proved that the list is 8 bit clean.

Incidentally, when testing on live lists it is a good idea to explain exactly why you needed to do a test on the live list. Actually, there was at least one other message in the current digest that tested UTF-8 incidentally to being a real article and that one does have a character that is in neither ASCII nor ISO 8859/1 (U+2122). This worked in both the digest and the qth.net web interface, with my viewers and fonts.

(The ASCII encoding of ASCII characters is identical to the UTF-8 encoding of them.)
