    Will Pine3.92 also write folder copies of sent mail with full 8-bit
data instead of the Q-P used now, or would the fcc reflect the data
spoken to the 8BITMIME or non-8BITMIME server (if mail was passed off as
Q-P it would also be written as such), or will it still be Q-P?

The following .signature contains 8-bit data sent to the pine-info
mailing list with BSD sendmail v8 which does not speak 8BITMIME so the
8-bit data is probably lost for both mailing list and news readers...
