2 responses, which I've never seen it do before. Relative to those characters in the
history, in the first line under Rahul's salutation, the first 3 extraneous characters
are where I have inserted a Tab, the other instances in that text are just Spaces, so
something is doing a horrible translation.
I think I need to correct your statement......
When sending to
fedoraproject.org domain I have configured T-Bird to send *only*
text/plain.
Now, in checking, =A0=C2 quoted printable does decode to Â. If, in T-Bird, you open
Rahul's message in a new window and then change "View-->Character
Encoding" from UTF-8 to ISO8859-1 the  will be shown.
So, I wonder why mutt is ignoring the charset=UTF-8. I also wonder why Rahul's
client is inserting the qp string.
But, I don't think it is worth the time (certainly not in this thread) to take it
further.
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
=A0=C2 in QP decodes to U+00A0 NO-BREAK SPACE in UTF-8 and is a non-printable character.
