This is a test message to check how vger reacts to seeing 8bit

If your mail server doesn't advertise the 8BITMIME extensions, I expect
this message to be corrupted to iso8859-1 during the smtp conversation
between vger and your server, because it lacks a mime version header.
To me it arrived via vger only, including the ö, with
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
