The application which attached the email as "quoted-printable" was MS Office Outlook - the application which attached the file as base64 was MS Outlook Express

This bug is possibly related to 308121 / 317009

The results of a cmp -l are 

   4234   0  40
   4325   0  40
<snip> 6874 lines

As per the previous bug, the good and bad files are the same length.

Bug 317009 has been fixed, in 1.5.0.2 and the branch & trunk nightlies.
Mark, please check if your problem has been solved; if so, mark this bug as 
a dupe of that one.
