PowerMail uses the InternetConfig settings to determine if a file is
encodable in base64 or not (ie, if the resource fork contains vital
informations). On Mac OS X, InternetConfig settings are editable from the
Internet Explorer's File Helpers preference. Make sure the "Macintosh
file" checkbox is not checked for the file type you want to send.
