not even sendmail, which qualifies, smashes the 8th bit
off on the receive side. on the send side it does if
the mailer flag 7 is used. mailer flag 9 (undocumented)
turns whatever encoding you've got back into an 8 bit
stream (in essense).
i have seen lotus notes V4? ack an EHLO but refuse to
offer 8BITMIME -- useless.
