With quoted-printable, 8 bit characters are represented by two 7 bit "standard" ASCII characters preceded by an equals sign which encode an 8 bit value.

"=A0" = HEX 160 = a character unprintable by any application excpecting only standard 7 bit ASCII characters.

Hi Bill,

They're still encoded quoted-printable, as far as I can see. In raw form, it looks like:
