Well, using QP in headers _used to_ cause all sorts of problems, and
getting you seriously flamed in most European hierarchies.  However,
maybe the consensus has changed.  I believe Free Agent is the last
significant newsreader without QP decoding, and the latest statistics
for the dk hierarchy put it behind Agent in popularity.  Last time I
saw someone complain about QP in headers, he was told it was his own
problem for using Free Agent instead of buying Agent ($29).
