Hi,
I've never before made a patch to Python, so take it with care.

A couple of comments, I reused a test where all the attachments contained an 
ending newline, except for the base64 one (conveniently...)

I think the comment in _bdecode that Andreas quoted before refers to 
base64.encodestring add an extra \n to de encoded string, but 
base64.decodestring can work with and without this extra \n:

>>> import base64
>>> base64.decodestring('MTIzCg==')
'123\n'
>>> base64.decodestring('MTIzCg==\n')
'123\n'

So it's not necessary to work around this in _bdecode. Let me know if it looks 
good to you.
