That indeed does what I needed.  Thanks Kevin!                                             
                                                                                            
Investigating further, the "quoted-printable" started last September.                      
Same date as a large dnf update including "logcheck" which is the                          
problem set of emails.                                                                     
                                                                                            
Changed "/etc/logcheck/logcheck.conf" MIMEENCODING to 8bit and thus                        
far seems to have fixed the problem.                                                       
                                                                                            
I was also able to "tag" all the many "quoted-printable" messages                          
since Sept and then use <decode-copy> on the tagged messages and                           
lastly delete the tagged messages.  "like it never happened :)"
