You didn't mention it, but I went over and looked. When the only one that seems to ship with the ability do it is Gnus, then I think that tells me everything I need to know. I'm going to yank this all out unless someone can come up with a plausible reason to keep it. (And I see Ned weighed in on the base64 discussion we had a while ago; I interpret his response as "it's perfectly fine to simply just stop decoding at that point, emitting a warning is recommended but not required"). --Ken -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
