List oddity

I just noticed that the unicode@unicode.org list processor appears to be
inserting a no-break space (0xA0) in front of 8859-1 characters (see my .sig
below). At least I think it is the Unicode list because it does not happen
locally or on other mailing lists.

Here is the name in UTF-8 just to see what happens to it:
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
