Description

I am writing a Web Service using CXF. The problem occurs when CXF receives quoted printable attachments, like this one:

------=_Part_6_1979395.1210796510882
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=Cp1252
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-ID: 606517570647
<?xml version=3D"1.0" encoding=3D"UTF-8"?>
<MyXml attribute=3D"value">
</MyXml>

The AttachmentDeserializer does not decode the "=3D" portions of the attachment. As a result, any downstream interceptors which are expecting XML content complain, because the =3D parts of the attachment make it non-XML compliant.
