I don't have to reply if someone else has already stated If my mailer wraps it wrong I might consider it the fault of my mailer. It doesn't however, but that's beside the point. Messed up quoting due to long lines is common and there are no rules that you must use perfect mailers. > what needed to be said. If you don't like my quote-above-reply, then > filter my emails.

Your message violates RFC 1855. As you said, RFC 1855 is informational and this list has it's own set of rules. And no, RFC 1855 is not the same as the list rules as you point out. Nobody has ever bothered writing an RFC about lkml :) // Stefan - 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/
