Just because your spam filter doesn't want to know anything about legitimate ISO-8859-15 encodings it doesn't mean it's automatically wrong. German without umlauts is sort of terrible to read. Besides, To replace one umlaut you need two characters. Given the number of umlauts usually in German this is additional bloat in each message.

Hence I'm not going to update the German translation accordingly but leave it as is. Feel free to make a Umlaut hack of your own in msg. With a few

perl -pi -e "s/foo/bar/g" msg

substitutions this should be a matter of minutes.
