Actually, I'll bet it was Base-64 encoding which is of course unreadable to
ordinary humans.

LISTSERV 16.0 has a fix for this.  Another reason to upgrade.

There are 3 types of Digest in LISTSERV:

 [Type]			[proper commands to get the right type]
 Plain-Text DIGEST	NOMIME DIGEST
 MIME DIGEST		NOHTML MIME DIGEST
 HTML DIGEST		HTML DIGEST

Depending on which email client the user has, one of these settings may work
better for them.  Try all 3.
