Hi Phil,

The original template used quoted-printable Content-Transfer-Encoding. 
In your template you use 7bit Content-Transfer-Encoding. The URL however 
is still quoted-printable'd:

${qp(url)}

If you do not want the url to be quoated printable encoded you should 
remove the call to qp, i.e., change it to:

${url}

Same thing for the from.personal name. If using 7bit encoding, you need 
to be 100% certain that all characters in the url and personal name are 
from the 7bit character set. Since you are also using charset=utf-8 it 
suggests you also want to support Unicode. I therefore strongly suggest 
you use quoted-printable encoding instead of 7bit (if using 
quoted-printable, make sure you encode the = characters from the text 
parts).

Kind regards,

Martijn
