I am also seeing this behaviour sometimes.  The problem appears to be
with quoted-printable encoding; for some reason, MIME::Tools is
doubling up any "=0D" characters at the ends of lines.  I will
investigate the problem further.  I think the solution may be to drop
the "CR" character from the terminating "CRLF" at the end of each line
when it is read from Sendmail.

David.
