    1.75  
    1.76  \fIarg\f1 is usually 8BITMIME. Some mailers use this to indicate that the message contains characters > 127. Masqmail is 8-bit clean and ignores this, so you do not have to recompile elm, which is very painful ;-). Note though that this violates some conventions: masqmail does not convert 8 bit messages to any MIME format if it encounters a mail server which does not advertise its 8BITMIME capability, masqmail does not advertise this itself. This is the same practice as that of exim (but different to sendmail).
