--- Comment #2 from Forza <forza@???> ---
The issue seems to be that Exim didn't escape characters that are outside of
the us-ascii/7-bit. As far as I know, Exim mostly does that in the logs (I see
plenty of lines with escaped characters like \360\237\216\211).


Here we see malformed double quotes:
2024-03-17T19:23:33.698+00:00 notice exim[5673]: [12\21] F From: "̼"
<msoony@???>
2024-03-17T19:23:33.698+00:00 notice exim[5673]: [13\21] R Reply-To: "̼"
<msoony@???>


The subject line has strange characters:
2024-03-17T19:23:33.698+00:00 notice exim[5673]: [15\21] Subject: 2030 ı Ҿ ̷ ̰ŷ
ϼ!


Having json output would be OK, but overkill. In the fail2ban case I need to
have either plain text or UTF-8/Unicode, and not mixed mode. The same applies
to syslog.
