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@postgresql.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.)
