Fucking mailer insists on quoted-printable for plain text :/

I've got something like the below awk in my mail->patch pipe:

/Content-Transfer-Encoding:.*quoted-printable.*/ {
        decode = 1;
}
// {
	tmp = $0
	if (!decode) {
		print tmp
		next
	}
	if (concat) {
                tmp = last tmp
                concat = 0;
        }
        if (tmp ~ /=$/) {
                concat = 1;
                gsub("=$", "", tmp);
        }
        offset = 0;
        while (match(tmp, /=[[:xdigit:]][[:xdigit:]]/, a)) {
                if (a[0] < offset)
                        break;
                hex = substr(a[0], 2)
                char = sprintf("%c", strtonum("0x"hex))
                gsub(a[0], char, tmp)
                offset = a[0];
        }
        if (concat) {
                last = tmp
                next
        }
        print tmp
}
