May be a silly question but i don't understart why we need to encode email content with base64 while any one can easily and decode it.


thanks

I thnk its to stop people trying to hack it.

i'm looking over the pear class now to see if it can give me any clues how to fix the mail class.

I don;t want to use a 3rd party one becayuse the codign is normally not good.

Thanks,
even we don't want to hack it ( opencart is just great ), but we need thinks to workout.

gmail , outlook, the bat
have this problem

i'm found the best implementation of mail class in PEAR Mail
http://pear.php.net/package/Mail/docs

you can try this method:
gmail ok
outlook ok

Can someone with this problem please pm me there ftp detaisl so I can fix the mail problem.
