i am not confused
i know that you are a user

but ON YOUR side you are rejecting randomly

i know but this does not change the fact that there are
people out there with names which can not be represented
in ASCII/ISO-8859-1 and so your default configuration
does reject them and it is a joke to think a international
maliling list should be configured should do this too

with one single expection

this does not change a dumb configuration for all other senders
