This may be bad...

Effenberg0x0 -- would you have any clients/friends/colleagues with
Outlook 2007/Exchange 2007?

I looked at FRC 2231 (http://www.rfc-editor.org/cgi-
bin/rfcdoctype.pl?loc=RFC&letsgo=2231&type=ftp&file_format=pdf), and
there is this piece describing MIME parameters (starting at page 6):

parameter := regular-parameter / extended-parameter
(...)
extended-parameter := (extended-initial-name "="
                       extended-value) /
                      (extended-other-names "="
                       extended-other-values)
extended-initial-name := attribute [initial-section] "*"
extended-other-names := attribute other-sections "*"
extended-initial-value := [charset] "’" [language] "’"
                          extended-other-values
extended-other-values := *(ext-octet / attribute-char)
ext-octet := "%" 2(DIGIT / "A" / "B" / "C" / "D" / "E" / "F")
charset := <registered character set name>
language := <registered language tag [RFC-1766]>

This ABNF covers current usage of Evolution 2.22;

Additionally there is this other piece:

encoded-word := "=?" charset ["*" language] "?" encoded-text "?="

This covers previous Evolution, and seems to match your Outlook.

Now, going to Microsoft, I see this (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-
us/library/cc540463(EXCHG.80).aspx, search for 2231):

Title: Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME)

Obsoletes: 1521, 1522, 1590, 2048
Exchange 2007 specific: Implemented by Exchange 2007.

I am not sure how to interpret this -- is 2231 implemented or not?

So. I would like you, or anybody reading this, to try to send to some
friend/partner/whatever that runs Outlook 2007 under Exchange 2003 and
Exchange 2007 -- both versions of Exchange (which probably means two
different friends/partners/etc).

I will update upstream with a question, and lets see how this goes.
