+Mailman is multilingual and internationalized, meaning you can set up
+your list so that members can interact with it in any of a number of
+natural languages.  Of course, Mailman won't translate list
+postings. :)
+
+<P>
+However, if your site administrator has enabled its support, you can
+set your list up to support any of about two dozen languages, such as
+German, Italian, Japanese, or Spanish.  Your list members can then
+choose any of your supported languages as their <i>preferred
+language</i> for interacting with the list.  Such things as their member
+options page will be displayed in this language.  Each mailing list
+also has its own <i>preferred language</i> which is the language the
+list supports if no other language context is known.
+
+<P>
+These variables control the language settings for your mailing list:
+
+<P>
+<DL>
+<DT><STRONG>preferred_language</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This is the list's preferred language, which is the language that
+    the list administrative pages will be displayed in.  Also any
+    messages sent to the list owners by Mailman will be sent in this
+    language.  This option is presented as a drop-down list containing
+    the language enabled in the <code>available_languages</code> variable.
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>available_languages</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This set of checkboxes contains all the natural languages that
+    your site administrator has made available to your mailing lists.
+    Select any language that you'd either like your members to be able
+    to view the list in, or that you'd like to be able to use in your
+    list's <code>preferred_language</code> variable.
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>encode_ascii_prefixes</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>If your mailing list's preferred language uses a non-ASCII
+    character set and the <code>subject_prefix</code> contains non-ASCII
+    characters, the prefix will always be encoded according to the
+    relevant standards.  However, if your subject prefix contains only
+    ASCII characters, you may want to set this option to <i>Never</i>
+    to disable prefix encoding.  This can make the subject headers
+    slightly more readable for users with mail readers that don't
+    properly handle non-ASCII encodings.
+
+<P>
+Note however, that if your mailing list receives both encoded and
+    unencoded subject headers, you might want to choose <i>As
+    needed</i>.  Using this setting, Mailman will not encode ASCII
+    prefixes when the rest of the header contains only ASCII
+    characters, but if the original header contains non-ASCII
+    characters, it will encode the prefix.  This avoids an ambiguity
+    in the standards which could cause some mail readers to display
+    extra, or missing spaces between the prefix and the original
+    header.
+</DD>
