Better make that:
         qtextSMTP            = %d32-33 / %d35-91 / %d93-126
                          ; i.e., within a quoted string, any
                          ; ASCII graphic or space is permitted
                          ; without blackslash-quoting except
                          ; double-quote and the backslash
itself.
