These days, 8-bit mail ought to be able to traverse the internet
unscathed (not need encoding), but so many things decide that they
better re-encode it for reasons best known only to themselves.  The
SMTP server you posted through, a list mail server it went into, any
other servers before you received it...

But I didn't notice anything in that message that wasn't 7-bit, so even
less need to encode it.
