I'm glad So basically, you send a binary file via MIME as a sole body part. Was the content-type text/plain? I don't think so. There is almost never a good reason to base64 encode a text/plain body part. It *is* a strong indicator of spam. However, if the content type is say, image/jpeg (or application/ms-excel), then I'd expect it to be base64 encoded. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: eBay Get office equipment for less on eBay! http://adfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/711-11697-6916-5 _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
