Subject: pine and unregistered Content-Transfer-Encoding

Hi,

I received what appeared at first to be a MIME compliant mail message,
except that the attachment used x-uuencode for the content transfer
encoding.  I know the MIME standard discourages the use of alternate
encodings (especially uuencode) to the default base64, but is there
a way configure pine to use uuencode instead?  Or perhaps something
can be put into the mailcap file?

Regards,
Makoto Ikeda
