 > When used in an e-mail, apostrophes should not be encoded

 > WordPress sends e-mail as plain text (as far as I know), and therefore
 special characters should not be encoded as HTML entities, but displayed
 as-is.

 > A French user has  recently reported that WP does encode at least one
 character: the straight apostrophe ('). My guess is that it is to prevent
 any breakage further down the road, but in this case it makes the string
 hard to read.

 > Actual blog title: Le Mag'zine

 > Title as used in e-mail: Le Mag'Zine
