:} Ok, what is happening is that your new editor is adding 8th-bit control

:} into MIME BASE64 format. Oops.

This is a test. This is a test of the emergency mailing system. This is only
a test. If this were a real emergency, this would still be in base64 format.

Translation: I think I fixed the problem, but I had to send one out to the
list to make sure. If you CAN read this, DON'T tell me.
