Similar situation with me - I'm lithuanian ad I am also using specific
lithuanian letters a lot.

This is known problem of Outlook Express of earlier versions - it does not
quote messages if they are quoted printable. People should update their
Outlook Express program.

I've tried to do that. Outlook Express version 6 handles that, but some
earlier versions (sorry, don't remember exact OE versions) don't. Now I am
useing 8 bit encoding for message body and Base64 for headers.

It seems it is not possible.
By the way, I've just noticed that this list removes header information
about charset used in message. Why?
Right now I find in my header:
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1"
But I am sure that it will become just
"Content-Type: text/plain" when I get my message from this list.
