+Summary: Need ability to select 8bit clean content-transfer-encoding for outgoing email
+
+Ability to select a 8bit-clean content-transfer-encoding for outgoing email is
+needed (i.e. the CTE that will be used when SMTP host or sendmail doesn't
+accept raw 8bit messages) - i.e. between quoted-printable and base64.
+ It's because very popular list managers have severe bugs wrt support of
+base64 encoding (they just append list signature to base64-encoded body, that
+on decoding gives a binary garbage at the end of the mail that corrupts
+xterm screens or even crashes them). Solution to that problem is using quoted-
+printable for email. Most non-latin1 people will definitiely select
+quoted-printable, so it would be better to make it default.
