Content-Transfer-Encoding: BASE64

[dann.f...@gmail.com]

When I receive a message that is encoded as follows:

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: BASE64

All I see is the raw BASE64. If (IMAP4) the message is opened with
Outlook, or Squirrelmail it reders correctly.

TIA

Those few headers aren't sufficient to determine what the problem is.
Maybe the Base64 encoding isn't quite up to spec. Maybe there's some
other header (Content-Disposition?) that could affect this.

When a codec encodes a binary for transfer over mail or news they insert a
ID code that says which encoding was used. Could you reply with the codes
that are inserted at the head of the data for BASE-64, UUENCODE, ETC. I
see the OP's issue at least weekly on a NNTP server and suspect it is a
flaw in the news poster, but can not ID the coding method. Any clues to
spotting a cause will be appreciated so TB can be improved.
