I should, right, but the UTF-16 eMail shows that this is only a should, not an “is”. But since the other charsets are all supersets of ASCII, this is never noticed otherwise. I think with an eMail in EBCDIC, which is base64-encoded, you might notice it too. I’ll have to test that.

My point is that this hunk has nothing to do with the feature you want to add (which is for the c-client library) it seems to be an independent report mixed into this new feature. BASE64 is normally an encoding for attachments (think of binary), the normal body (the one which people normally write) is normally encoded in quoted-printable. Why is anyone sending base64 to encode the main body? In any case, if there is base64 in the main body, and Alpine should not be decoding it, I think we need to see that, and that is not part of this feature, but an independent report.
