Hello everyone - I did some more poking at this last night, and I think
I have devised a work-around. The basic process is to have logwatch
output a file and then call s-nail from a script to send the file.
Step 1 - Add these lines to /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf:
Filename = /temp/logwatc
It is called "Quoted Printable". There should be something in the E-Mail
header that indicates this (Content-Transfer-Encoding header). Maybe either
Logwatch or s-nail is leaving out this header.

=20 is an ASCII space character, and =3D is an ascii "=" (equal) sign.
I've seen various emailed documents that mangle them as you see, but if I
ever knew the cause, my tired old brain no longer remembers.

Now that I have a test CentOS9 system set up, I am trying to get it to
send me logwatch reports via email. S-nail is proving very frustrating.
It almost works ... But not quite!
The main problem is bogus characters in the logwatch report. Here is a
section of the report I get through email
