Hello,

We are seeing some of the messages that PMDF leaves for ccMail to deliver
that contain what looks like some form of line wrapping that uses the ``=''
as the continuation character.  There message also appear to have hex
quoting for some characters like maybe =20 means a space and maybe =9 means
a tab.  I know this is a marginal description of the problem.  I will
enclose a part of one of these message at the end of this message.  What is
going on?  Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill
