Hi,

I'm sending 8-bit ASCII file (KOI-8 chatacters) with PINE 3.96 and do not
want text to be encoded. I have all features like "8-bit .." enable and
inclide ASCII text in a mail body using ^R command. Everything is ok
for rather small messages, I do not have any encoding and everything is ok.
But when I send rather large text, PINE automatically BASE64 encode it.
Can I avaid such an encoding? Thanks.
