+             standards.  However, if your prefix contains only ASCII
+             characters, you may want to set this option to <em>Never</em> 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 <em>As
+             needed</em>.  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.""")),
