FWIW, the current pure-silver configuration is set to
convert HTML attachments to plain text. It is also set to
strip out non-text MIME attachments.
Quoted-printable can be set so that the original
characters appear. This choice is NOT activated so QP should
be converted correctly. QP is a way of expanding the number
of characters beyond those possible with plain ASCII.
Since several list members (including me) report seeing
the same thing it appears to be an artifact of the freelists
machine.
Is this a minor or major problem to others on the list?
