And most people use spellcheck. So your spelled-out hex codes method makes more sense. But that's not a shortcoming of email. If you look at the email code you'll see that the mime type of the body section is clearly marked as plain text and/or html. You can't just say, "Don't touch this sentence. It's base64." You have to put base64 in its own section. (Some body sections are actually entirely base64. I don't know why. It's not secure and it increases the size by 1/3. But maybe it helps to foil things like NSA sniffers looking for keywords. In any case, even a base64-encoded body wouldn't help you. It would be encoding *after* the spellchecker has already altered your key.) It's an interesting problem you had, though. I used to send activation keys via email and it never occured to me that they could become corrupted. But I don't use spellcheck. And I've never designed a system where I use someone else's email to send something to me. I'm surprised it doesn't mess with your hex. "CBC231... Did you mean 'cabbage'?" That's what I meant in saying email and HTML can handle base64. They have a way to include it, but of course that way has to lead the client to accurately interpret which part is base64. It has to be systematic. It's actually becoming more common in HTML. Email and HTML are both systematic and both can accomodate base64 in various ways. The HTML way is such a handy idea that I wrote drag-drop VBScripts to convert an image and put it on the Clipboard. I use it to make webpages with images built in. For instance, recently I was looking up a houseplant and wanted to save a picture with info about the species. Inline base64 made that very easy, putting it all into a single HTML file. Here's an example: <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY> This is a picture<BR> <IMG WIDTH=40 HEIGHT=82 SRC="data:image/gif;base64,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" /> </BODY></HTML> If you save that as HTML you'll get a webpage with a small picture of a "4". The only limitation is that IE was late in implementing it. Older IE versions can only handle an image up to something like 32 KB. Anything bigger and IE will clip it.
