You can't. That's why uucp(1) and uuto(1) were invented. Encoding is
cheating.

You could if /bin/mail supported a logical separation between a letter
and its envelope. As I know nothing about X.400 except that it weighs
more than I care to read, and very little about other mail delivery
systems, let me ask a possibly stupid question: do any other mail
subsystems support this separation so that binaries could be mailed?
