Looking at it now. That clearly wasn't the only problem, because there
was a "sleep 1800" process that had been running since July 3. Logfiles
weren't touched etc. Just restarting it fixed that part, which clearly
somebody else could've done as well ;)

I found the bug with the Russian emails, btw. It seems mhonarc encoded
the invalid UTF8 sequences inside valid HTML escape entities And the
code applied the "fix broken UTF8" logic *before* it unescaped the HTML
entities. Now it does it both before and after..

Oh, and this should never have affected messages on -hackers for
example, because it was always processed before ru-general. It would hit
the PUG lists, -www, -patches and a few others.
