=> Please let us know if the username you were trying to register contained UTF-8 characters or not so that we would know if this was the cause of the problem or not.

I tried to create lizabelos with a CNRS (didn't worked) and a GMail account (worked). I tried to create lizab with a lix account (didn't worked). Another person of my lab tried the same.

They were automatically cleared after Dec 4.

Account names are ASCII; user names may be UTF-8, e.g. savannah.gnu.org/users/hagb

In fact, user names don't show up in the registration messages, but the messages are localized, including their subjects, depending on browser settings.

But why can't Savannah send Unicode messages in the first place?

I don't see any pending accounts for either of those email addresses.
What account name were you attempting to register?

The root cause of that error is use of UTF-8 characters in any of the
email headers then requires an SMTP UTF-8 transfer protocol.  Which
indicates to me that a header in the email included a UTF-8
character.  I can only guess that this must have been due to a UTF-8
character in the username.

I don't know if UTF-8 user names are supported or not.  Given the
information so far I would guess not.  But perhaps that would be a
feature enhancement. Please let us know if the username you were trying to register contained UTF-8 characters or not so that we would know if this was the cause of the problem or not.
