XMLRPC-Plugin and encoding

Hi,

I have only used pyblosxom for a couple of days, and I got everything to 
work including blogging through the metaweblog api via blogtk etc.

Since I'd like to setup a simple mail2blog script, I tried the following 
python code which generally works:

#!usr/bin/python

import xmlrpclib

srv = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://myserver.org/pyblosxom.cgi/RPC2")
blogID = "/"
userName = "username"
password = "****"

title = "Testing the Metaweblog-API"
body = "i am testing python xmlrpc"


srv.metaWeblog.newPost(blogID, userName, password, {'title': title,
                       'description': body}, xmlrpclib.True)


However, if either title or body contains umlauts or other 
non-ascii-chars, no content is rendered at all, only empty txt-files. So 
it looks like encoding blues...

I don't know if this is a plugin or me-not-knowing-python-issue, but I'd 
be grateful for any hints on how to make this work.

Cheers,
Michael
