Hi!

You can try:

*) to disable QP encoding by adding (setq-default mime-transfer-level 8)
to your .wl

or

*) to apply the patch to mel-q-ccl.el (flim-1.14.9) from:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.mime.japanese/677

If you always want to use iso-8859-1 instead of UTF-8 add

(setq default-mime-charset-for-write 'iso-8859-1)
