Suppose I write:

   To check if you C compiler is working, put:

      main () { printf ("Hello, world!\n"); }

   in a file `hello.c' and do:

      make hello && ./hello

Of course, I expect you to either copy, or cut and paste, the two code
lines quoted above.  I could also, using older methods, have put them
there shared or uuencoded, so you may extract them exactly, say, or at
least, force you to realize that I was sending files.

I would be tempted to say that if the sender wants to really attach file
README, then s/he should do it that way.  If s/he merely quotes README as
text, then it should be nothing more than that.
