I am using UTF-8 locale since ages.

The characters show correctly in my terminal. I have no problem with
that. The e-mail is then just rejected by the list server.

I don't really care if the maintainers are encoded or whatever.
However, neither get_maintainers nor git format-patch encodes them and
the listserver rejects them when not encoded.

Thanks
