Comment (by dichlofos):
Please note that `SpamAsassin` adds points only when base64 is used for
encodings that '''do not require it''':
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/Rules/MIME_BASE64_TEXT
A message with long lines '''do require''' some kind of encoding (not to
violate the RFC), so if SA adds scores for such letters, it is a bug in SA
(and contradiction with its documentation).
To be sure, you can check that message body has long lines and enable
base64 encoding flag only in that case. This will definitely save
bandwidth in case of well-formatted message bodies.
