hmm.. just curious if anyone faced such a (bug?) in pgp 5.0i. 
the thing is:
 
I gzip file (so we get so far 'white-noisy' binary sequence) I encode
binary sequence(file) with uuencode, I crypt it with pgpe , I send to
another addy which also uses pgp 5.0i, I decrypt the uuencoded file, and I
find 'holes' in it. (i.g. some pieces of encoded file are missed). Anyone
has a clue what happens?
