I use some old-fashioned e-mail clients for my personal e-mail accounts. Normally this is not a big problem: the e-mail I get from friends, LJ, etc., are usually pretty readable. But Google Calendar is one of the offenders. It's sending me e-mail that looks like this:

QWxleCBNb3JnYW4sIHRoaXMgaXMgYSByZW1pbmRlciBmb3INCg0KVGl0bGU6IGh3ICMyIGR1ZQ0K
VGltZTogVHVlIERlYyAyIDEwcG0gliAxMTozMHBtIChUaW1lem9uZTogRWFzdGVybiBUaW1lKQ0K
Q2FsZW5kYXI6IGFsZXhAcG9uZHNjdW1tZS5vcmcNCk93bmVyL0NyZWF0b3I6IGFsZXhAcG9uZHNj
dW1tZS5vcmcNCg0KDQpZb3UgY2FuIHZpZXcgdGhpcyBldmVudCBhdCAgDQpodHRwOi8vd3d3Lmdv
b2dsZS5jb20vY2FsZW5kYXIvZXZlbnQ/YWN0aW9uPVZJRVcmZWlkPWEyUm5NbVJ5WkRsdU0yVnJO

Got that?

The e-mail goes on to say:

RGh6TVdSaGFXZGhNVE53TURRZ1lXeGxlRUJ3YjI1a2MyTjFiVzFsTG05eVp3JnRvaz1NVGtqWVd4

YW4gYWxzbyB2aWV3IHlvdXIgY2FsZW5kYXIgYXQgaHR0cDovL3d3dy5nb29nbGUuY29tL2NhbGVu

...and on and on like that for a few pages. Informative, huh? This kind of mail is both for invites and reminders from my own calendar.

Not sure what I'm going to do about this. Stop using elm? Annoying. Sigh.
