Although not strictly required, UTF-8 is usually also transfer encoded to avoid problems across seven-bit mail servers. MIME transfer encoding of UTF-8 makes it either unreadable as a plain text (in the case of base64 ) or, for some languages and types of text, heavily size inefficient (in the case of quoted-printable ).
Some older and today uncommon formats include BOO, BTOA, and USR encoding. Most of these encodings generate text containing only a subset of all ASCII printable characters: for example, the base64 encoding generates text that only contains upper case and lower case letters, (A–Z, a–z), numerals (0–9), and the "+", "/", and "=" symbols.
By setting your preferred language and location, you can stay informed with the latest local headlines, weather forecast and date formats displayed.
The "Modified Base64" alphabet consists of the MIME Base64 alphabet, but does not use the "=" padding character. UTF-7 is intended for use in mail headers (defined in RFC 2047), and the "=" character is reserved in that context as the escape character for "quoted-printable" encoding. Modified Base64 simply omits the padding and ends immediately ...
More common today is the Base64 format, which is based on the same concept of alphanumeric-only as opposed to ASCII 32–95. All three formats use 6 bits (64 different characters) to represent their input data. Base64 can also be generated by the uuencode program and is similar in format, except for the actual character translation:
Most problems with viewing image attachments in AOL Mail can be fixed with a bit of trouble shooting. Try again later.

The problem could be caused by server delays due to a lot of people accessing their email at once.
