Description

Lets assume that we a message encoded using "quoted printable" encoding like this:
"text before eq sign =\r\n text after LF"

When you try to decode it using QuotedPrintableInputStream in Strict Mode you will get following exception:
java.io.IOException: Found LF without CR
at org.apache.james.mime4j.codec.QuotedPrintableInputStream.read0(QuotedPrintableInputStream.java:195)
at org.apache.james.mime4j.codec.QuotedPrintableInputStream.read(QuotedPrintableInputStream.java:317)
at org.apache.james.mime4j.codec.QuotedPrintableInputStream.read(QuotedPrintableInputStream.java:302)
at org.apache.james.mime4j.codec.QuotedPrintableInputStreamTest.read(QuotedPrintableInputStreamTest.java:199)
The same is fine using SILENT mode.
