Thanks, I see the problem now: this message sends an inline GIF image,
without using a multipart MIME email message format.  Emacs 22 always
decodes base-64 and QP encoded messages, if they are not multipart.  I
somehow got the impression that you were talking about a multipart
message.

The problem here is that Rmail is too naive: it assumes that such
single-part messages are text, but it doesn't make sure that by
looking at the Content-type header.

I will try to at least make this decoding optional, so you could turn
it off, and get the old v21.x behavior.  If I find a safe way to
decode only text messages, and leave non-text Content-type alone, I
will; otherwise this will have to wait until after the release.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
