What does this strange email mean?

    [ The following text is in the "utf-8" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

Looks like base64 data to me.

 Hello,

I found two emails in my /var/spool/mqueue.in that are ~95KB of the

That's just a small sample of what the file contains.

There are no normal mail headers or anything like that. The entire file
