xml - Working out what character encoding Ariba sends and converting to a proper file

Question

I am downloading a file from the Ariba network using cXML (basically XML) and it has provided an attachment in the content. I have tried every type and tool I can to try and convert the attachment but haven't been able to work out what it is.

The actual file results in a .eml file, which I can download separately using the web interface, so I have the end result as a comparison.

Does anyone recognise this kind of encoding and how to convert it to an actual file. Windows based. Any language is ok, I use Delphi specifically but once I know the process I can adapt.

Note this is only a portion of the file, the actual file is too long to post here. I am hoping someone can recognise the encoding format with all the x characters.
