Peter is correct: it really is encoded as Base64. Why is not clear; the
Mime header says that it's text/plain, but in spite of that it sets
transfer-encoding to base64. Maybe just a defective mail client.
It says text/plain, but doesn't name the character set. Some mailers
switch to base64 if the character set isn't ASCII, even if all of the
characters that actually appear in the message would be legit ascii.
Hans' blackberry may be set to latin1, given he's in .nl.
Hans, if you want, I'll try to gin up a gateway that translates your
messages and posts them to the list. Shame to see you leave the list
over this kind of tomfoolery.
