I have a mailman list that is set to be a one way announcement list. I have had complaints from some people that they get this weird coded stuff when they get a message that looks something like this (I am making the actual numbers up)
03 42 32 20 53 A0 D0 23 23 50 D0 20 S0 "the body of the text D9 39 20 D2 19 10 12 22 39 30 40 29 19 is written oddly over here"
Has anyone ever seen that.
If there were = signs instead of spaces as in
=03=42=32=20=53=A0=D0=23=23 ...
that would be raw quoted-printable encoding. Possibly some MTA between Mailman and the end user is re-encoding the message body as quoted printable and the end user's MUA doesn't understand it.
When I send the same person who is getting this odd code via the mailing list a test message directly from my own email it comes through just fine. It seems to only happen via the list, and not to all people.
What we would like to see to even guess what is happening is the raw message source of the message you receive from the list and the raw message source of the same message as received by the user who sees the strange encoding.
