I think Ioannis is responsible for the majority of your =xx characters :-)
Since I'm readning the individual mails, my mail program handles the
majority of the characters. However, it seems that the mailer used goofs
for some characters. I'm not sure if it's the = character that gets
incorrectly encoded - or probably not encoded - resulting in large parts
of some mails to be impossible to read. My Pine balks and writes invalid
xxx encoding something, and if the mail seem important, I have to browse
the raw mail file...
