For a base64 blob to be handled by Attacher, it needs to contain line
feeds, with or without carriage returns. If there are no line feeds at
all within 1000 bytes of base64 - and I have seen junk like that in
e-mail - Attacher will fail. It also needs to see a preceding
Content-Type and Content-Transfer-Encoding header, separated from the
actual base64 by at least one empty line.
