OK, you asked for it... :-)

Quote from mutt's manual:

  6.3.111.  pgp_strict_enc

  Type: boolean
  Default: yes

  If set, Mutt will automatically encode PGP/MIME signed messages as
  quoted-printable.  Please note that unsetting this variable may lead
  to problems with non-verifyable PGP signatures, so only change this if
  you know what you are doing.

So I strongly advocate implementing q-p decoding capability into the MIME
parser.

Best regards,
Daniel
