Literally any mail that goes via Mimecast servers (at least sent by me!) is converted *for whatever reason* to quoted-printable. E.g., patches I punched out today via "git send-email" even have the line continuations thingy again (they disappeared for a while, maybe there are different MTAs involved and it's like playing the lottery) https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200401104156.11564-2-david@xxxxxxxxxx/raw >From what I can tell the mail itself is fine once converted, it's just nasty that 8-bit is converted *for whatever reason*. -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
