No, I was referring to the fact that you change the email address to
have a " instead of a "@".

Take a look at the files, Documentation/HOWTO and
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for how to do this correctly.  Those
files should help you out.

sorry about, but that wasn't an intend.
This action has been done by one or more of the apps I am using (editor, 
mailer...). I assume it is a feature of Kmail, inserting plane text seems to 
be converted to space separated text, discarding tabs.

This address was in the original file I got from the net. Perhaps this file 
have had spaces instead of tabs, too.

Ok. that should be ok. I am not used to the rules on the kernel traffic list.

I did add one on last request.
Was this wrong ?
Perhaps I need an Howto about mailing to kernel list. I read the main 
documentation, but didn't found this amount of request rules in a way that 
would be sufficient to publish a patch which I just wanted to make useable by 
the whole community.
I will try to verify how I could generate the patch in a way that it might be 
acceptable.

You forgot:

:(

Please redo the patch such that the formating of the file is not changed
(you converted tabs to spaces).

Don't put changelog information in a copyright notice, that's not
needed.  Just put your name there please, with a "real" email address.

And we need a "Signed-off-by:" line.

Perhaps I need an Howto about mailing to kernel list. I read the main

would be sufficient to publish a patch which I just wanted to make useable by 
the whole community.
I will try to verify how I could generate the patch in a way that it might be
