    Did you uuencode the file you wanted to send OUTSIDE of Pine and
then include it in the body of your message with ^R ?  That is the
usual technique.  You need to be able to see the actual uuencoded file
in the message before you send it.  Or are you possibly sending an
attachment, which is something else?

    That should not make any difference, because uuencode is
deliberately a 7-bit code.

Sure. I created a uuencoded file which i included with vi (:r file.uu),
which is my alternate editor. I can see the file before i send
it and it's a valid uuencoded file. Btw. i am using pine 3.94 on
HP-UX 10.10.
