That would be my memory. After I left UCB in the mid 1980s. Your work
with uuencode certain predated it. But as Doug points out, putting sources
in email was done before that, al biet fought with error. I used to a
couple capital X's in column 1 to and other such things to deal with mailer
issues.
You certainly automated that a bit.
