I think these may be literal translations of "quoted
printable" characters. Quoted printable is a way of encoding
characters not in the normal range of 7 bit text characters.
I've tried to find a setting on the list machine to
eliminate these but nothing I tried works so I returned it
to the default settings.
Check your mail client program for its settings. Some have
a setting for quoted printable. It probably should be set to
eliminate these.
