New description:

 {{{
 Outlook+Exchange have been seen sending messages with Quoted-Printable
 bodies and newlines encoded as =0D=0A within.

 Mutt responds by displaying a ^M at the end of each line.

 Mutt should _probably_ recognise the encoded CRLF as a newline and
 translate it to LF for display, just as it would for non-encoded CRLFs.
