My first message was this:
It came out fine. It was your message that got screwed up. Their list
server, Listar, for whatever brain dead reason, converts any
``Content-Transfer-Encoding'' header of type ``quoted-printable'' to
``8bit''. As such, you should instruct your mailer not to use that
encoding.
(As a test, this message is sent using base64.)
As is obvious now, Listar screws up any ``Content-Transfer-Encoding''. If
it was decoding it and then calling it ``8bit'', then that would be one
thing, but simply changing the header without changing the content is quite
another. Proper mailing list managers should _not_ munge the headers of
messages.
