Junk mail is sometimes base64 encoded and the same message can come from many
addresses.   The only way you can block it (if the messages is exactly the same
each time) is to grab a piece of encoded text from the source window and plug it
into the search pattern.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try to filter the contents of a base64 encoded message
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
Would prefer that the filters work on the message after it is decoded.
