AFAIK there is no anti-base64 filter, but there is a limit of 30K or so
on message size; how big was your test case?

The majordomo 'bot can notify you when it diverts your message for
moderator approval, but this is an option in your subscription settings,
and I think Marc has it turned off by default for some reason. You
might want to adjust your subscription options. Send "help show" and
"help set" to majordomo(at)postgresql(dot)org for instructions. Personally
I keep all my PG subscriptions set like this:

pgsql-general:
Receiving each unduplicated message
Subscriber flags:
noeliminatecc
nohide
nohidepost
nopostblock
prefix
replyto
selfcopy
norewritefrom
ackstall
ackdeny
noackpost
ackreject

(IIRC ackstall is the setting at issue here.)
