It may be tough to fix such problem once and for all.
Both the uulib library (wrapped within a Convert::UUlib module),
and the file(1) utility have their history of misbehaviours.

Sometimes uulib thinks it recognizes a format and in an attempt
to decode some text produces a mess. Or the file(1) utility
misclassifies some clutter.

Try to repeat the decoding steps manually (often a command-line
tool uudeview that comes with uulib can be used with same results).

Or set temporarily:
  @keep_decoded_original_maps = (1);
  @debug_sender_maps = ( ['[EMAIL PROTECTED]'] );

When a mail comes from a sender matching @debug_sender_maps,
full debugging will be turned on for this message, and
temporary files in $TEMPBASE (e.g. under /var/amavis/tmp/ )
will not be deleted, making them available for examination.
