And don't forget the worst damage of all - ASCII/EBCDIC translation!
Since there's no one-to-one mapping, and different sites use different
translation tables, there's no way you can know what the mail will look
like when it gets through.  Most commonly caught characters are characters
in ASCII range 5B-5F and 7B-7F.  And, of course, tabs are expanded to
spaces and formfeeds are usually lost....
