Description
I am not sure if this is a listhandler issue, it may actually be a mailman issue but thought I would rule this out first.
I am using FCKeditor on my site and for empty lines it adds <p> </p>. In the plain text emails sent to the list the xhtml tags <p>,</p>, etc are filtered out but the character coding is not.
Does listhandler or drupal do any filtering when sending the mail or is that all done by mailman?

It would be Listhandler/Drupal converting the email before sending it to the list.
Let's see if drupal.org is immune to this: ?
If you didn't see it, there was a non-breaking space encoded between the colon and question mark.
Listhandler calls the PHP function strip_tags before sending the email. In Drupal 6 there's the funky function drupal_html_to_text: http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_html_to_text/6 which not only filters out tags, it decodes the HTML entities. But it's only in Drupal 6.

Drupal.org is immune to this, so maybe there's something I can borrow from Project Issue (or whatever) that will help.
