Hi, I have further investigated this (BTW how to search for =3D20 with =20
Google?). I have found this:

--> SNIP START

A third thing that can cause "messy" email is the fact that some older =20
mail programs do not gracefully handle the advanced character sets that =20
let us use "special characters" such as bullet marks, foreign letters, an=
d =20
other non-standard characters. Eudora and many other email programs use =20
something called "quoted-printable" encoding to send these special =20
characters, which requires that the receiving email program support an =20
email standard called MIME. If the email program of your recipient is not=
 =20
"MIME-compliant," then they might see text that looks like this:
> See Dick=3D20 >See Dick run.  Run, Dick, run.=3D20

See Jane dance.=3D20 >Dance,.=3D20 Jane, dance.=3D20

The solution is to turn off "quoted-printable" encoding for messages that=
 =20
are going to people with older mail programs.

<-- SNIP END

However I configure Opera in this way...
