Checking my archives, in Zone 1, no PCs based on uuencoded mail were ever 
upheld.  OTOH, those sysops having problems with uuencoded traffic on specific 
systems were encouraged to find other routes.

A couple of sysops were chastised for uuencoded messages in echomail when the 
echo rules do not allow for such but that had nothing to do with the *C 
structure.  More the moderator as echogawd.

There were also complaints about systems that truncated overly long uuencoded 
messages but again, no PCs were upheld.  If you couldn't say it in 16K blocks, 
you were out of luck.

       David
