There should be a 'SHUNTING: .pck' message immediately following the
above traceback. This points to an entry in Mailman' qfiles/shunt/
directory.

You can see the message by pointing Mailman's bin/show_qfiles at that
file. There is something bogus and/or non-ascii in that message's From:
header, possibly an RFC 2047 encoded word with the 'wrong' character set.

Please post the message or at least the headers of the message here, and
I will investigate further.

[Mailman-Users] Error in pipermail

[David Gibbs]

I just upgraded from a pretty old version of MM to 2.1.29 and everything 
appears to be working OK.

I noticed the following in my error log though.

I only have a few lists that archive using the built in functionality.

decode byte 0xb5 in position 26: ordinal not in range(128)

while i>0 and (L[i-1][0] in lowercase or
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xb5 in position 26:

Any suggestions on how to fix this?
