When parsing the source of an HTML body, Sylpheed will not resolve 
"=" to "=" in the textContent of an element and will remove 
"=" and replace it with an empty space in the @href value of an 
anchor element.

Thunderbird will work as expected though and resolve it to "=" in both 
cases.

However, the generator of the HTML message source shouldn't be going 
crazy and using an HTML entity for "=", especially the "=" form.

It's something that Sylpheed should probably improve to be more robust, 
but...
