Changing the mail interface from EUC-JP to UTF-8 is still disruptive
to daily operation. It might be an idea for the longer term, but it
doesn't have to happen right now.

On the other hand, the translation data fed to apt, apt already
expects it to be utf-8, and we're feeding it EUC-JP, which is
completely broken right now.
