Yes.

This being an experiment, it seems right to tell mailing lists that they 
can use ALT-ADDR in the MAIL FROM parameter. In all cases of mail going to 
non-UTF8SMTP users, that should be the address that gets to them; either 
this mechanism is working for both normal users and mailing lists, or it is 
broken for both and we need to reconsider.

A mailing list with an internationalized address and no ALT-ADDR parameter 
is, of course, forcing a message to bounce when it would have to be 
downgraded to get delivered. Just as with normal users.
