There's another person here who happens to have _exactly_ the same
amount of diacritics in his own name and From: field, without getting

Many restaurants cater to clientele which are at the high end, and they

I didn't say it was your fault. Indeed, my point has been that the
fact that your name gets mangled in so many different ways when
various people quote it and requote it shows that the majority of
