First of all, *thanks* for the note about the 998 max. I've
updated my .mh_profile.
Just so we're clear ... I hope you either removed it
completely, or upgraded to 1.6 and changed it to 998. Also, I
think that there's mostly no reason you should worry about
sending stuff out that is encoded quoted-printable. I mean,
you were able to reply to my message that was encoded as
quoted-printable and the world did not end. Although you might
want to consider upgrading to 1.6, as the message you sent out
was actually not MIME-compliant and 1.6 would have fixed that.
For reasons I cannot explain, my message contained a NO-BREAK
space in it, but it looks like the mailing list software
helpfully re-encoded your reply to it as quoted-printable.
(Huh, I guess the answer is I get a no-break space if I hold
down the "Option" key when I hit the space bar).
Hopefully I'll upgrade to 1.happen soon -- it's part of the
Ubuntu upgrade that's on my To-Do. In the meantime, I changed the
value to 998 in my .mh_profile. It's harmless for now, provided
I don't try anything I normally wouldn't.
I prefer avoiding sending email that's encoded quoted-printable
because it makes it a little harder to "grep" through my outbox
folder. I'd rather not need to decode a bunch of messages first.
Oops! Yeah, missed that NBSP character. B-[
