Currently, these files assume UTF-8 as contents:

  - Config files (any files placed under /etc/sympa and under each
    list directory, excluding shared document)

    Also files in list configuration templates

  - Web & mail templates, including mhonarc-ressources.tt2

  - Scenario files

  - Task files (title can contain UTF-8 string)

In short, probably all!


However, I think cares to be took reading these files.  Only using
:utf8 (or :encoding) layer seems not perfect solution for me. I'll
post in another day.
