    GOOD. Originally had dots. But no QP, therefore no possible harmfull
deQPification. Though note the lacking empty line between header and
1st MIME separator: 2 lines in your outbox, 1 only here on list.

    Try the same test, but this time setting $pgp_strict_enc=yes and/or
forcing QP encoding at compose screen (^E quoted-printable). Add also a
text line with *2* trailing spaces. BCC me, please.

    If my hypothesis is good, a pair of spaces "  " at end of line,
normally QP-encoded by Mutt " =20", may be changed to raw "=20=20". See
closed bug #1469 discussion on mutt-dev (February 2003).


    Update: Received GOOD private mail untouched from TG, thanks.

    Update again: See line #8 of Joe Milbourn's BAD message
<20040925145548.GA23419@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. There are 5 spaces, more
than enough to confirm the case. :-)


Bye!    Alain.
