Summary: base64 messages not decoded in archives

Initial Comment:
It appears that messages in base-64 encoding are not
decoded in pipermail archives with Mailman 2.0.8.  For
example:

http://lists.southspace.net/pipermail/esf-uk-coordinators/2002-June/000009.html

In some cases I can tell people to switch to 8-bit or
quoted-printable encoding, but some people are using
web-based email services that don't give them any
choice.  The result is that their messages are shown as
garbage in the archives.

Pipermail in MM2.0.x doesn't handle MIME very well, and this
is a known limitation.  It won't be fixed in MM2.0.x, but it
is fixed in MM2.1.
