I think she means this:
[Error: Formatting error: Non-hexadecimal character in QP encoding]
which I see in many list messages when logged into the shell on my computer
and reading with pine (pine 4.58 running on MacOS X 10.3.8; for
completeness, the MTA is whatever version of postfix came with Mac OS X
10.3). I saw it in a message tonight:

[Error: Formatting error: Non-hexadecimal character in QP encoding]
Note in this case, it displayed into the mailman-users footer although I've
seen it much earlier in a message. I see this frequently (a few times a
week) and always and only in mailman-users messages. I hexdumped my mail box
and saw nothing interesting but have included the section that includes that
where pine complained below. Maybe someone else can see something of
interest there.
