OT: MIME,quoted-printable (was: Sane #hash implementation?)

Hello,

is my news reader (Gnus v5.9.0) broken? I’m just trying to explain why
I see things like that:

“Shot (Piotr S.)” [email protected] wrote/schrieb
[email protected]:

–jE+K4o1MICf3EEet
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Disposition: inline
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[…]

in terms of Set#sort instead of Set#=3D=3D?
^^^^^
“None”. You cannot just =20
^^^
Regards
Thomas

It looks like Gnus 5.9 doesn’t handle quoted-printable.

A quick googling turned up

Strange that it does handle it most of the time, but not always. I
never observed the problem with e-mails (Gnus is a mail client, too),
e.g.:

Header =

Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=“=-=-=”

First part =
–=-=-=
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

=> Ok.

Only some news articles have disturbed my Gnus so far.

Thanks
Thomas
