David,
Could you turn off your MUA's option for sending your email
messages out as "quoted-printable"? Reading your posts has
been difficult at best on an xterm where there is no MIME.
(see included text, below)
It seems you're using mutt as an MUA - I think you should be
able to configure it to send plain text.
Thanks,
deb

| of it before someone had to show me :-) will improve matters...

|
|
