  The official stance of the owners of this server are as follows though
unrelated material was removed to maintain brevity. You may read the full
context of the server posting policy in the announcement group here on this
server...

-------------

Put simply, a binary is any file that is not a plain text file. For our
newsgroup purposes, the following are examples of binary files:

- JPEGs, or other graphic file formats,

- HTML-encoded text (many people who follow our newsgroups use
  newsreaders that cannot automatically read HTML posts without
  launching an external Web browser. Please post plain text messages or,
  at least a combination of plain text and HTML),

- any executable file,

- any other file that is sent as an attachment to a posted message, even
    if it is readable text. This includes POV-Ray scene (.pov) files
    sent as message attachments.

----------

  I would have to say that you Vcard falls into these categories by virtue of
the fact that it is an attachment. Please act responsibly and do yourself a
favour and take the time to read the server access policy in it's entirety.
