OE lets you see the raw E-mail, including the encoding?  I didn't realize that.

It sounds like you are looking at the right thing -- with base64 encoding, 
the MIME segment will display in a human-readable format, but when looking 
at the raw E-mail, it won't be human-readable.

But, if one of the attachments was HTML (and had a "Content-type: 
text/HTML" MIME header), and was base64 encoded, then it would still 
trigger the test.
