AFAIK, pine uses the QUOTED-PRINTABLE encoding whenever the message itself contains non-ascii characters. And that is good, because it's the standard. You can't send 8-bit (weird) characters over (possible) 7-bit nodes. If that annoys you, simply remove the weird characters before sending the mail and it should be ok. Pine will recognize that there is nothing to encode and leave it as it is. At least my version of pine (3.91) does it without any effort of my part.
