There is no STANDARDS TRACK RFC saying anything about List-Id:. There are only some individual's submission for a draft about it. It is also way overdue to expire (Expires September 23, 1999), and it has not been updated, nor advanced towards RFC. There are issues where me and DaveM are as obstinate as Linus, inserting lots of junky headers and munging others (e.g. Subject:) is a big no-no. You can hash the issue all you want, but you can't convince me and DaveM. That X-Mailing-List: is actually a LOOP detection measure. http://vger.kernel.org/lkml/#s3-9 I do have some plans which will change things at VGER, but those details are not ready for publishing yet. > Peter /Matti Aarnio - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
