Hi,

Some mailers insert blank lines into a uuencoded files,
so that they look like the following:

MUNH]N<SL0?6K\ZOQ0@+_6[_#!:<D&J7J5/9OOJ_U&:]QB_O5IF-J]F7P'V[A
MJM8C^QZ$WW?V0CK=N@O!TN5YES/]=<F)`W8<6JA-#8@!CJBQR!SPW)SD4%^^

MR`SB;]7;_3$=UG'ZBP0V=_X@IPW.'U]Q*83/0:-B^+DNP-QL0QZ5F<\#3H[P

Gnus incorrectly uudecodes such articles because of these blank lines.
Would it be possible to skip blank lines (not beginning with /^M/
regexp) before uudecoding? This will help a lot, especially when
decoding files splitted in several messages.

With best regards,
                   Vladimir.
