Do you know whether BASE64 was considered as encoding scheme and
whether uuencode was preferred?

BASE64 is well standardized and generally used in MIME email
(http://www.mhonarc.org/~ehood/MIME/2045/rfc2045.html#6.8) to encode
binary data. There are plenty of codecs floating around.

I remember reading this in the mmencode(1) man-page:

 RATIONALE

 Mimencode is intended to be a replacement for uuencode for mail
 and news use. The reason is simple: uuencode doesn't work very
 well in a number of circumstances and ways. In particular,
 uuencode uses characters that don't translate well across all mail
 gateways (particularly ASCII <-> EBCDIC gateways). Also, uuencode
 is not standard -- there are several variants floating around,
 encoding and decoding things in different and incompatible ways,
 with no "standard" on which to base an implementation. [...]

Best regards,
Marcus
