That should be an error from Icedove when it converts from "7bit" to
"quoted-printable" :-P
No, seriously, I dunno. I use Pan newsreader and this is what I see for
my headers:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I have no chance for using ipv6 externally, only local. My ISP is still
not ready for that (well, it is, but not for its customers) ;-(. Should I
wanted to go out using IPv6 I would have to setup a tunnel broker but I'm
not motivated enough to try it :-)

Which reminds me that yesterday was the "World IPv6 Day" but I'm afraid
that big sites (Google, Yahoo!, Amazon, etc...) pushed a very light test
(ipv4 resolution was still avaialble) so no one was facing problems.
