Webhook-mailer sends emails without subjects?

As I said a year ago, python-checkins effectively has no owner, as in messages to python-checkins-owner get no response.

Either the mailer or the list is broken.

Currently, 199 python-checkins messages “|Subject:|(no subject)|” are held for moderation.
“|Reason:|Message has implicit destination|”
with boilerplate rejection message
“Blind carbon copies or other implicit destinations are not allowed. Try
reposting your message by explicitly including the list address in the To: or
Cc: fields.”

But I suspect ‘(no subject)’ is not relevant (as in, is also true of passed messages).
Reading the above, I looked at maybe 25% of the held messages and the common factor is non-ascii in the proper full name of author or committer.

I 'accept’ed the messages, but I cannot make the list always accept messages from webhook mailer, like I supposedly could for others. I suspect that this is because ‘webhook-mailer’ is already always ‘accepted’ for well-formed messages.

Zack, please see if you can update Heroku now.
