Hi John,

I know what is happening because I have this problem on all my
lists, since in the italian language we use accented vowels (such
as àèéìòù) and they get encoded in quoted-printable by the default
configuration of most email clients. The problem is that either
Ecartis or some other MTA in-between (all messages suffer from
this problem, so if it's an in-between MTA it must be one that
processes all messages coming to Ecartis) is incorrectly stripping
out the Content-Transfer-Encoding header (without decoding the
content).
This makes both quoted-printable and base64 encoded messages to
not be decoded by MUAs, because they lack the above-mentioned
header. The only solution I found so far is to tell my users to
set their email client to send emails as 8-bit instead of QP or
Base64. However, it would be really nice if Freelists handled
messages correctly... :-)
Regards,
Gabriele.
