I don't know if this occurs in version 3.92 (which I've just obtained),
but when using version 3.91 occasionally on send it would set the
content-transfer-encoding to QUOTED PRINTABLE which meant that on other
newsreaders some characters eg. the UK pound sign and carriage returns
appears as =03 and =20 respectively. Does this happen in version 3.92? If
so, is there any way of setting the content-transfer-encoding to 7bit?
