Q: 

Write MIME file with double-quotes

I am manually creating a multi-part MIME-formatted file and submitting it to an SMTP pickup directory. When the email arrives in my inbox it has lost the opening double-quote of any double-quote terms. e.g.

<html lang="eng">

becomes

<html lang=ng">

I have checked the file before it is submitted to SMTP (PowerMTA) and it does contain all the correct double-quotes etc.

What's happening here, and how do I code around it? My end-users will be using this solution to create HTML-based outbound email, so it needs to cope with any HTML content.

A: 

It's not about ", it's about = You should convert all your = to =3D. There are also other limitations that you can find in wikipedia.

Is there a nice C# one liner that will correctly encode my string?

Looks like there isn't. However, google search returns various results like this one: http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/topic/48017-how-to-decode-quoted-printable-encoded-string/ or http://www.nicecleanexample.com/ViewApp.aspx?TID=quoteprint

Great - that's done the trick. I used the nicecleanexample code which worked well.
