It looks like your mail reader is failing to decode the transfer-encoding
quoted-printable.  Mine is doing fine.  Maybe this text in my .procmailrc
is helping:

:0 * ^Content-Type: *text/plain {
 :0 fbw
 * ^Content-Transfer-Encoding: *quoted-printable
 | mimencode -u -q
    :0 Afhw
    | formail -I "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit"
 :0 fbw
 * ^Content-Transfer-Encoding: *base64
 | mimencode -u -b
    :0 Afhw
    | formail -I "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit" }
