However, UUEncoding is almost always used in Text-only emails, as it
provides a way to encode attachments inline, as it is.
The big difference with Mail_MIME is that MIME is used to seperate a mail
into different pieces, Text/html, text/plain, and attachments encoded with
different types of encodings.
UUEncoding can also be done on simple files to store them as ASCII-only
files....
Thanks, Cipriano. This explains why uu decoding in Mail_MIME was implemented in a separate method, not connected to MIME parts.
