Yeah, mutt says:

[-- application/x-=?UTF-8?B?dGV4dC9wbGFpbjsgY2hhcnNldD1VVEYtOA==?= is unsupported (use 'v' to view this part) --]

in the mail body. But then one can open it and it defaults to text:

---Attachment: application/x-=?UTF-8?B?dGV4dC9wbGFpbjsgY2hhcnNldD1VVEYtOA==?= (all)
No matching mailcap entry found.  Viewing as text.
