| no-conversion means no _characterset conversion_ (or at least in
| XEmacs it does). However I agree raw-text is a much better name.

"raw" is a better name.  Data and text are not necessarilly the same thing, 
and frequently are not.

| In fact in FSF Emacs no-conversion == binary.

Hmm... I seem to recall that.  This is one of FSF Emacs 20's stupidities:
it assumes that if no coding system is set it *must* perform a conversion,
which is just plain wrong.  So I put no-conversion coding systems into
pop3 -- which should not be required since POP3 operates on RFC 822
messages, which forbids 8-bit data.

Of course, this caused XEmacs 20 to break because on "illegal" messages
becaue no-conversion means something totally different.  What a pain.

Since I changed the coding systems to `binary' nobody has complained about
it, so I guess it works.
