IMHO it doesn't.
Consider a time table. Someone does something like that in his mail:
------ snip ------
Hello folx,
here's the timetable for xmas
begin 1700 lunch
1730 gifts
1830 singing with the family
end
is open
------ snip ------
This is a simple (ASCII) text message, but I bet a lot of "enhanced"
mail clients interpret this a uuencoded data.
This is due to some "intelligent" mail clients, that allow dragging
e.g. images from the desktop into the mailbody in the midst of plain
text an incorporate it as uuencoded data. This clients don't even use
some magic MIME tag to point out they're doing something wierd.
This IS broken.
