That's getting to be a more common trick of spammers.  They are sending an 
HTML MIME segment that is encoded (using base64 encoding, which is normally 
only used when sending files).  That way, the E-mail can't easily be filtered.

It's something that we may add a new test for, as HTML (and text) should 
never need to be encoded that way.
