Yes and no.
I am quoted here, and indeed have often urged
that people avoid MIME, HTML, attachments
and other such mailjunk -- which is just echoing
explicit Statalist policy.
In this particular case, however, the difficulty is that
people have names, or use words in their own
languages (e.g. French, Spanish, Italian),
that are accented or otherwise cause difficulty
for the rather conservative majordomo software.
I don't think we can, practically and even morally,
ask people to stop using their own names or their own
languages, so some sensitivity needs to be
displayed in both directions.
