My guess 2: Mac sucks, If understand correctly, UTF8 encoded
in base64 or other 7bit encoding is "recommended" on the
Internet

Nobody recommends base64 for text newsgroups, lots of people point
out that it sucks.

Then simply UTF8 is not supposed to be used. It is a 8-bit
encoding. And my first guess is available.

and sending a post or mail in raw UTF8 codes is "not
recommended".

Unicode (UTF-8) encoding _was_ not recommended for text newsgroups and emails. I am one of the people who _did_
say it's best not to use it - simply because a few die-hard
holdouts (mainly unix/linux users) have software that can't
cope well with UTF-8.

Times change though and I haven't heard Jim grumbling about UTF-8
posts for a good while so it may finally be time to let that go.
