UUencode is not likely to work either, because Fidonet messages are NOT plain 
text, they are a LIMITED subset with some specific control characters used.
Also, the total length of the message needs to be considered, some systems
limit messages to only 8KB.

What exactly is it you are trying to do, just shift a file between two Fidonet nodes?

Cheers........pk.
