Missing EOLs [Re: Do you pay attention to duplicate bug triaging?]

[Scott Dier]

It saw this line:

I agree with HervÃ: I find this important and useful...

and I think then it decided to convert it into base64 -- did your mailer 
send it as base64 or perhaps its an odd conversion.  Thunderbird seems 
to view it fine, though.

I also noted this:

X-MIME-Autoconverted: from 8bit to quoted-printable by micah.cowan.name id
