What is content transfer encoding quoted-printable?

What is content transfer encoding quoted-printable?

Quoted-Printable, or QP encoding, is a binary-to-text encoding system using printable ASCII characters (alphanumeric and the equals sign = ) to transmit 8-bit data over a 7-bit data path or, generally, over a medium which is not 8-bit clean. It is defined as a MIME content transfer encoding for use in e-mail.

How do you encode a quoted-printable?

The format of a quoted-printable message is simple. The encoder converts any character that must be escaped to an equal sign (=) followed by the character’s ASCII value in hexadecimal. For example, a VT character (ASCII value 11) is represented as =0B and a DEL character (ASCII value 127) is represented as =7F.

What is content transfer encoding?

Content transfer encoding defines encoding methods for transforming binary email message data into the US-ASCII plain text format. This transformation allows the message to travel through older SMTP messaging servers that only support messages in US-ASCII text. Content transfer encoding is defined in RFC 2045.

What is content conversion in exchange?

Content conversion is the process of correctly formatting a message for each recipient. The decision to perform content conversion on a message depends on the destination and format of the message. Messages sent to recipients inside the Exchange organization don’t require this type of content conversion.

Is transfer encoding mandatory?

it SHOULD be sent whenever the message’s length can be determined prior to being transferred, unless this is prohibited by the rules in section 4.4. This clearly indicates that it is not required to be sent.

What is quoted-printable line?

Quoted-printable encoding is used where data is mostly US-ASCII text. It allows for 8-bit characters to be represented as their hexadecimal values. For instance, a new line can be forced by using the following string: “=0D=0A”. Line lengths are limited to 76 characters.

What is MIME quoted-printable?

Quoted-printable is an encoding method defined in the MIME standard. It is used primarily to encode 8-bit text (such as text that includes foreign characters) into 7-bit US ASCII, creating a document that is mostly readable by humans, even in its encoded form.

What is content encoding?

Content encoding is mainly used to compress the message data without losing information about the origin media type. Note that the original media/content type is specified in the Content-Type header, and that the Content-Encoding applies to the representation, or “coded form”, of the data.

When to use Quoted Printable encoding in Microsoft Docs?

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Quoted-printable encoding is used where data is mostly US-ASCII text. It allows for 8-bit characters to be represented as their hexadecimal values. For instance, a new line can be forced by using the following string: “=0D=0A”.

How does content conversion tracing work in exchange?

If a single message contains multiple recipients, the categorizer determines the appropriate encoding for each message recipient. Content conversion tracing doesn’t capture any content conversion failures that the categorizer encounters as it converts messages sent to external recipients.

Do you need TNEF for external message conversion?

Message conversion for external recipients: This type of content conversion includes the Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format (TNEF) conversion options and message encoding options for external recipients. Messages sent to recipients inside the Exchange organization don’t require this type of content conversion.

When does content conversion occur in Microsoft Office?

Categorization on each message happens after a newly arrived message is put in the Submission queue. In addition to recipient resolution and routing resolution, content conversion is performed on the message before the message is put in a delivery queue.
