As an EMACS afficionado, perhaps I can get you to fix AtillaMail?

Right now, even without attachments other than the message body,
it adds:

	Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1; name="text"
	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
	Content-Disposition: inline

The correct thing to do is to claim the character set is "us-ascii"
and/or to use "8bit", "base64", or "quoted-printable" transfer
encoding.

As it is, everyone who has any intelligence at all has to manually
go through an additional step to decode your message bodies, since
they have their mainl clients configured to avoid automatic invocation
and retransmission of worms and other programs.

Thanks.
