The quoted printable decoding function tries to decode the entire mail text body, which includes the footer added by the mailing list software. The help text contains the substring "Subject=HELP" and the QP decoder stumbles over '=H' sequence. This one is no valid QP sequence and hence YAM's error message is completely valid, as well as pine's. ThunderBird seems to simply ignore such errors. Must be some kind of a "Why bother the sub-average users with errors they don't know anything about?" workaround. Ilkka's mails has a content-transfer-encoded of "8bit", while mine has "quoted-printable". This explains why Ilkka's mails don't cause any trouble, but mine do. I also get the same error message when reading other mails, which contain a qp-encoded HTML part where some links are not correctly encoded. I'd say the mailing list software must be fixed, or at least the automatically appended footer. Alternatively YAM could be changed to skip this return code (-3) of qp_decode_file() silently.
