Scott: We have seen that the Base64 test is also triggered for International languages. We used to have a high weight assigned to it but we noticed when people write each other using Unicode or foreign (non-English) characters the test is triggered.
Is this known? Regards, Kami -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of R.

It is *very* common to use base64 encoding in E-mail. That's the standard way that file attachments are sent. The key here is that there is no reason to send text/HTML segments using base64, which is what the BASE64 test looks for. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
