- <para>According to

- , the perl documentation says that you should always use
- <function>binmode()</function>
-
- when dealing with binary files, but never when dealing with text
- files. That seems to suggest that rather than arbitrarily putting
-
- <function>binmode()</function>
-
- at the beginning of the attachment files, there should be logic
- to determine if
- <function>binmode()</function>
-
- is needed or not.</para>
