Yes, that's one option.  I'd have to see which is easier to patch,
metamail or elm.  I don't use either myself, so I don't know in what
weird places it might call 'mmencode'.

In which case it would need to be patched to not install mmencode
itself.

I'll look more into both packages today, any other suggestions welcome.
