Yes, I agree with that.

And unfortunately, there are still posts in the French hierarchy fr.*
that either have no MIME headers or that have Content-Type: without
any MIME-Version: header field.
They contain 8-bit chars.

Examples of such readers:  Xnews, MacSOUP, lots of malconfigured Outlook
Express...

So I believe it would be currently too harmful to reject posts with illeg=
al
8-bit chars...  Such articles are not valid.
