I guess your two bugs #695443 and #694920 are related, I'm merging them.

I can reproduce them when running 'LC_ALL=C canto' (or canto-fetch). It
seems you are running a non UTF-8 locale, using something like
en_US.UTF-8 should work. The FAQ covers this point and there is already
a bug report about this in upstream's bug tracker:

 http://codezen.org/canto/start/#locale-or-wtf-are-these-lines
 https://github.com/themoken/Canto/issues/17

To send feeds per email, you could write hooks or keybindings. For more
information, see http://codezen.org/canto/advconfig.
