Normal Content-Type header is
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
But
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
is wonrg. Sometims it works, but when recepent is far away theare
is may servers between sender and recepient and som of them
supports only 7bit mails.
Correct heaser field must be
Content-transfer-encoding: Quoted-printable
or
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit
Somwere in your OE options you must disable 8bit MIME support.
