Will Outlook use QP when there is a blank character at the end of
a line in the body of the message?  I do not use Outlook, so I do not
know.  In the past I have seen many subscription attempts to our
Majordomo lists (most of which have been converted to Mailman) in
QP format, and the su_______ line has

     su______   listname [EMAIL PROTECTED]

and since Majordomo does not decode QP, the confirmation mail is
sent to an invalid address

     [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have not experimented with administrivia mail to Mailman in QP
format, as I do not have an easy way to generate such mail.

Note I am using "su_______" so that my mail is not treated as
administrivia.
