Remarks

The Q encoding is a modified form the the quoted-printable encoding. In the Q encoding, white space characters, including the end of line characters, are not allowed. The space character (ASCII 32) may be encoded as an underscore character ('_', ASCII 95), and the underscore character itself is always encoded using the hexadecimal encoding form ("_" encoded as "=5F"). In addition, other special characters such as '?' must be encoded using the hexadecimal encoding.
