[imp] Problems with Mac Attachments

Apparently they are "AppleDouble" encoded... but looking at the headers they
seem to be MIME/64 as AppleDouble is flagged as "Suitable for Any Computer".
I'm going to try to find an image that's quite small (the limit on the ML is
30K I didn't realise).

Cheers,
Henry
