In general, it shouldn't matter too much. Probably the simplest thing to do is encode the parts as: Content-type: application/x-cpantester-report Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable QP will leave things pretty skimmable, but a bit munged. Using a non-plaintext type allows us to ignore the question of charset, which is probably not a known quantity. We could assume that it's utf-8 and run with that. Things checking subject would be entirely unaffected, as CTE only affects the body. Things checking the subject and body would be /mostly/ unaffected, since nearly anything (I hope!) will be using some class to separate the body and header, which then would take care of the CTE automatically. -- rjbs
