Hm, "recently", I've switched to reading this list over
Gmane with the news client KNode. When I subscribed to the
list, I originally used mails and Thunderbird.

Hm. Even more strange.
Hmm...
I noticed, that some of my messages are utf-8 encoded and base64
transfer encoded.
Why is it base64? Strange. In other newsgroups, I also use utf-8,
but in those newsgroups, my messages are 8bit encoded - that's what
I'd expect. Thus, it's not me who base64 encodes the messages.
Is anyone else having problems with the way my messages appear
(ie. *DISREGARDING* the content... *G*)?
