The offer of @infradead.org mail accounts is open to any active MeeGo
contributor, FWIW.

It would be better if people *didn't* attempt to use their broken
corporate "email" systems -- it's painful for us _all_ when we have to
put up with people posting HTML crap, top-posting, not bothering to trim
their citations, breaking threading, insisting on stupid list
configurations like Reply-To: pointing back at the list and the
obnoxious [MeeGo-dev] noise in the subject line which obscures the real
subject, etc.

All of which tend to arise from using certain substandard corporate
systems that aren't really proper MIME email servers at all, but are
just pretending to be.
