This was the bane of one of our projects to the point where Andy re-wrote
ZMailIn to no-longer use XML-RPC.

It's to do with stuff-which-should-probably-be-entities but we never tracked
down what wasn't encoding something when it should have done.
I'd blame the marshalling code in xmlrpclib.py myself.

If you ever fix this, do let us know :-)

cheers,

Chris
