It is just incompetence at work again.  utf8 is invalid, that server is
broken.  UTF-8 must always be represented as utf-8 or UTF-8.   It is in the
UTF-8 specification, and also RFCs 3629 and 2978.

In the interest of compatibility Cyrus-SASL might actually remap utf8 to
utf-8, but I am really tempted to say it would be best to just let it be and
tell Vodafone to get whomever wrote their smtp server to fix it.
