Well, I somehow doubt it. Converting from 8-bit to quoted-printable is 
really hard to mess up for a few characters only as it is a direct 
transform.  And the quoted-printable I received did decode and display 
correctly.  Similarly for other people on the list.

Seems to me that it is Øyvind's (let's see how this one gets through) 
MTA that is messing up incoming ISO-8859-1 and/or quoted-printable.  
Emails from him are UTF-8 with a base64 encoding which seems even more 
strange to me.
