And which is a wrong assumption.
Binary data can be sent with Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary.
Here's an example just in case anyone needs to see it.
<http://shadow2531.com/opera/testcases/mht/000.mht>
The HTML and css are attachments and testpage.png is a binary
attachment in the file. View source to see all the data.
The archive works in IE and Opera. The Mozilla Archive Format
extension doesn't handle it. Safari I hear doesn't support mht. None
of them will generate an archive with a binary attachment.
As one can see, the archive works remotely, but will also work offline
if you saved the .mht file.
