By assuming the default values.
The "garbage" you include there is a uuencoded file; back in the old
days, the mua wasn't responsible for decoding that at all, but rather
the user would recognize it themselves and pipe the mail through
uudecode to get the Gemm.pdf file. Many MUAs now recognize a uuencoded
file included directly in the body of the message, and interpret it as
an attachment.
