My mail client labeled that attachment as:
------
--Apple-Mail-83-489973374
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=junk.dat
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="junk.dat"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
---------
... and the server stripped it, since it was expecting something like this:
--Apple-Mail-83-489973374
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=us-ascii
And I am here attaching a file I expect to remain attached:
a b c d e
f g h i j
k l m n o
p q r s t
u v w x y
