Non-Ascii character in e-mail address causes traceback

Bug Description

I fixed the problem without saving a trackback, but if
a non-ascii character (>127) somehow makes it into the
subscribers list, the admin/members page will not
display, and will show a python error on line 870 of
Mailman/Cgi/Admin.py. The error says something like
not in range(128). Thus user management must be done
via command line utility. No error occurs when using
list_members.

Either no non-ascii character should be allowed in
e-mail addresses, or this error should be worked around.

This was fixed in Mailman 2.1.6 by tightening the test for non-ascii in email addresses. The exception can still occur if a non-ascii email address is somehow a list member.
