This bug is because of MULE. Stainless Steel Rat fixed it in FSF Emacs
20 by adding
(coding-system-for-read 'no-conversion) ;; because FSF Emacs 20
(coding-system-for-write 'no-conversion) ;; is st00pid
But Norbert Koch's pop3 does not work because of XEmacs 21.2.
My solution is using "binary" as the coding system. "binary" is alias
of "no-conversion" in FSF Emacs 20, "nil" in XEmacs 20 (hope it works
in XEmacs 21). The patch is attached.
