Probably not!! Its the famous (Infamous) Microsoft exchange server working in background and it breaks mails without treating mails coming from git send-email specially :) > So I have the patch and its applied now :) I have seen this kind of discrimination on breaking patches based on the size of patch. If its very small (like this one), you may get a unbroken patch but if the size is a bit large then nobody can save you :) -- viresh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
