Looks fine to me. Nothing wrong with quoted-printable.
If you happen to read in non-MIME-aware software then it degrades very badly. Yes, such software is still being actively used.
Like I said, the world has moved on. MIME aware software has been standard for at least 10 years. Anyone not using MIME aware software should either upgrade or put up with the consequences - its their choice.
The adoption of modern standards should not be put on hold for a few diehards that insist on using out of date software.
