Mostly for porn, AFAIK.
Yeah, the copyright violations have mostly switched to yEnc since it has
less bloat, so it's only the old-school porn posters who still use
uuencode.
Dumping undelimited uuencode "attachments" into a plain E-mail text body
is quite common in automated notifications from commercial applications.
Huh. I suppose I should thank someone that I've never had to deal with
commercial applications living that many decades in the past.
