Mail attachments can be uuencoded, use this filter to convert the file back to its correct form. Files of this type are usually given an extension of .uue.

UUEncoding's major drawback is that there are many flavors of uuencode in existence and this plays against interoperability. Gateways that convert between EBCDIC and ASCII, furthermore, may damage some of the characters used in the uuencode format. The base64 encoding is designed to be invulnerable to all known gateways. The UUencoding implemented by TextPipe uses the following characters:

`!#$%&''()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_
