I'm guessing it is simply a bug on Outlook 2000 that caused the data to
internally round-trip via an encoding and decoding.  I'd be very surprised
if there was a setting to cause this behaviour (otoh, I've been very
surprised before :)

FWIW, note that for the spambayes project, we used the (more painful)
low-level MAPI interfaces directly and didn't strike this problem - so the
bug is probably in the simple MAPI layer.

Cheers,
