Hi all,

lately i see more and more mails using base64 encoding for the body of the mails.

example:

------------------------------------

This is a spam mail, my SpamAssassin did not recognize it as spam, even if i have rules that can match the decoded body. My question is:

Is it possible to decode into TXT/HTML the encoded parts so SA can catch it ? Otherwise, how can the rule be applied to an encoded mail body?

Regards.
