 Hello,

 I didn't have time to look at it in details yet but from what I saw from
the cvs commit messages, you're creating a pseudo MIME part for the
uuencoded contents, right? If so, everything should work as expected.

 I do have a couple of uuencoded messages which I saved exactly for this
purpose (testing uudecode support once it is added), will do.

 Sure. Thanks a lot for doing this, this is a useful feature (even > 10
years after MIME standardization...) and I wanted to do it myself since a
very long time -- but you know the story. My contribution was finally
limited to closing the bug 614 ("implement uudecode support") ;-)

 Thanks!
