Hi, I'm sending emails that can include accented characters in the plain text version of the mail (attachment). Here is an example of the corresponding log:

This does not happen when no accented characters are included. The header of the plain text attachment becomes: *Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64* What control of this transformation do I have? To decrease my SpamAssassin ranking, I need to stay away from base64 when possible (1.8 MIME_BASE64_TEXT RAW: Message text disguised using base64 encoding).
