Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
- It blows up the mail for no good reason. Some people still have to watch
their bandwidth...
- Many mail filters frequently don't MIME-decode emails.
- SpamAssassin and other filters assign a high score to base64-encoded
mail, especially if the content is ASCII, because spammers use it to
circumvent filters.
Reason enough? ;-)
