You can only send what is visible if the attachment was human-readable
text.  You cannot do that with binary attachments.

Also, if the mail you forward has both text and HTML format, the
recipient will be unable to display HTML or text depending on her mail
agent, but will see both of them.

So I think it is better to send them encoded, so they appear as
attachments on the receiving side.
