Hi, I have further investigated this (BTW how to search for =20 with
Google?). I have found this:
--> SNIP START
A third thing that can cause "messy" email is the fact that some older
mail programs do not gracefully handle the advanced character sets that
let us use "special characters" such as bullet marks, foreign letters, and
other non-standard characters. Eudora and many other email programs use
something called "quoted-printable" encoding to send these special
characters, which requires that the receiving email program support an
email standard called MIME. If the email program of your recipient is not
MIME-compliant,
then they might see text that looks like this:
> See Dick=20 >See Dick run. Run, Dick, run.
See Jane dance.=20 >Dance,.=20 Jane, dance.
The solution is to turn off "quoted-printable" encoding for messages that
are going to people with older mail programs.
<-- SNIP END
However I configure Opera in this way...
