`Content-Transfer-Encoding' & SendMail

I have SendMail configured with the Smart_Host directive:

define(~SMART_HOST'. `my.isp.com') since they are blocking out bound
port 25. This works well.

The problem I am experiencing is that all mail sent this way has the
following in the email header:

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I do not want to use that encoding specifically at all times. Even when
set within my mail program for something else, such as 8-bit, it is
still converted to the above format.

What can I do to prevent this from happening?
