echo "\000root\ [at] test.com\000root" | base64

This give me not the encoding I want ? How can I echo a string that
has the same effect as passing a string as a argument for example
base64 "\000root\ [at] test.com\000root"

Check the man page for your base64 command to see if it takes '-' as an
argument to represent standard input.
