What's wrong with QP? Are you advocating for Base64? If so, why?
Well, since you're asking ... I'm advocating 8bit. Or really, make
the encoding user-selectable.
Oh :-) I don't usually think of 8bit as an 'encoded' form :-)
I would certainly buy in to 8bit as the default for text/*. I can't
think of any current MTAs that won't handle it, but there should be a
user configurable override.
Is an override required? It could always try to send 8-bit...
When nmh hands over the email to send using SMTP it would be nice if it
followed
SMTP Service Extension for 8-bit MIME Transport
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6152
perhaps it does, and wanted an EHLO response with 8BITMIME support
before sending any top-bit-set bytes. Maybe it already does this.
Cheers, Ralph.
