It came through ok -- the attachment was just marked as a binary file
rather than text. If your mailer can send text attachments without
mangling the content, it's preferable to send as text so that
archive/recipients' mail software will show them, but either is okay
and binary (application/octet-streaam) can be better if you're at all
worried that your mailer will mess things up, e.g. replacing tabs with
spaces.
