When a quoted-printable message is incorrectly terminated at EOF:
p;</td>=0A=0A <td width=3D"49%"> </td>=0A </tr>=0A </tb=
ody>=0A </table>=0A</body>=0A</html>=0A=
--=_mixed 002D08B5C1257475_=--
(missing newline before the separator) qp-decode barfs:
Error: line 758: '^@' is something other than line break or hex digit after = in quoted-printable encoding
and continues to read into the invalid buffer contents.
IMHO, if EOF is encountered, it simply should stop processing and
issue no error message:
