In the MUA, not the MTA.

They'll certainly do that when an MTA fails to advertise 8bitmime.

Not as certainly as expected. Eg. Thunderbird 3 has not a single line of
code neither to recognize 8BITMIME nor for sending BODY= in MAIL FROM.

I just checked it in
mailnews/compose/src/nsSmtpProtocol.cpp
for 3.1.10.

But since
mail.strictly_mime
defaults to false it sends using transfer encoding 8bit regardless what the
MTA supports.

So one of the major MUAs out there cares even less as qmail about 8BITMIME;-)

Greetings, Wolfgang

SeaMonkey here.

Still enough shared code with T-bird that I'm not even going to look.

Might as well set my servers to advertise:

COLDBEER

Dunno wot RFC covers that, but suspect it would see more traffic than:

8BITMIME
