Subject: automatic uuencoding?

Are there any neat solutions for having pine automatically uuencode and 
include in the text a binary file, rather than having to send it as an 
attachment to an unknown foreign mailer?

    Automatically?  Not that I can recall.  If you are using the
alternate editor feature, some editors might have the ability to run a
command or script which you would still have to invoke but which would
uuencode the file in the current editor workspace.  If such a thing is
doable, it would depend totally on what editor you might be using.

    Unless you are talking about high volume, I have not found it all
that onerous to uuencode a file offline and then read it into the
composer or editor.
