I'm surprised people are even opening your attachments to look at them. My understanding is that the problem is not with attachments, but with using strange things like base64 for attachments. Nick has used plain text attachment which seem perfectly fine for me. Check this: http://www.tux.org/lkml/ "If I get a patch in an attachment (other than a "Text/PLAIN" type attachment with no mangling and that pretty much all mail readers and all tools will see as a normal body), I simply WILL NOT apply it unless I have strong reason to. I usually wont even bother looking at it, unless I expected something special from the sender. Really. Don't send patches as attachments. Linus" So plain text attachment seem to be acceptable... > > Greg > -- > Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
