AOL sucks donkey er, um, *parts*. They support Base64 enconding and 
Base64 encoding. And if you ask them nicely, maybe they'll consider 
supporting Base64 enconding. :-)

So when sending attachments to AOL, send using Base64 encoding. And if 
sending to an AOL user that has a Mac, remember to flatten the file 
before sending it (when it doubt, compress with stuffit... in your 
instance, JPEGs are already flattened for the important data so no need 
to worry there).
