I see a test in the more recent Declude config files called BASE64, but
cannot find any documentation of what this test does and why it would be
used. I know what Base64 encoding/decoding is, but maybe someone could
enlighten me as to why it would be a good test to use and what it checks
for. I did check through this list but only found a couple of messages that
did not answer my questions.
The BASE64 test will be triggered when E-mail contains a text or HTML MIME segment that is base64 encoded -- there is no reason for such segments to be base64 encoded, but spammers commonly use the base64 encoding to try to bypass filters.
