Do my posts have the same issue? Perhaps       > someone more knowledgeable about the subject can chime in.              The "email source" option (which is Cntl-u on Thunderbird) will show       you the "Header" info of anything you send - after you send it, but       it's better than nothing.              Here's the applicable header from your email:              Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit              ... so you're not sending "Quoted-Printable" encoding. Most email       clients have an option to send "Plain Text" (or something similar)       emails. Some allow you to speify the option in the Address Book, and       make it automatic. In Thunderbird's address book, the option is       "Prefers To Receive Emails Formatted As ...", and you can choose       "Plain Text."              Thanks for asking: I'll be happy to inform anyone who asks if thair       email client is using Quoted-Printable encoding.              (Since this is of general interest, I've changed the Subject and       reset the threading info.)              Bill              --       Bill Horne       Telecom Digest Moderator              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
