* Some servers report the encoding of a message/rfc822 as 8bit, and
because of that, Alpine sets their encoding to quoted-printable, in contradiction to RFC 2045. We handle this by keeping the encoding reported by the server. Based on a report by Holger Trapp.

+ messages as QUOTED-PRINTABLE, in contradiction with RFC 2045,

<LI> Update build.bat file to add /DWINVER=0x0501 so that Alpine can
build when using Visual Studio 2017. Fix contributed by
Ulf-Dietrich Braunmann.
