You don't believe it?
Try replying to this article (but do not send the reply) - you will see
that the > characters are missing. I just put some umlauts in so that
leafnode-filter uses quoted-printable: $(D??????????????(B. Otherwise a simple
non-encoded posting would have been generated.
See these examples from you:

I enabled this encoding ca. one week ago because it's better than
blasting 8bit characters into the usenet (and because my
leafnode-filter had to be tested) and now inserted a check whether 8bit
characters have been used.
