This is how the header of your message appeared:

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Note the charset is now "us-ascii" and there is no
"Content-Transfer-Encoding". Curious, the header of the message sent
from my FreeBSD system still had the "Content-Transfer-Encoding:
7-bit" field.
I think that HTML composed messages are assumed to be 8-bit, even when
they omly contain 7-bit chars.
