Let's not overstate the impact here. Changing the -done acks to include messages using MIME won't make any difference to people reporting bugs; it may at most involve one extra step for people who use poor MUAs, but it's probably no different from the one extra step they need to take when receiving PGP/MIME-signed mail. On the flip side, it will probably be much easier to read some acks in reasonably MIME-capable MUAs, particularly those which contained MIME attachments in the original report and those which were written in a different character set from the closing message. I think on balance it would be worth it. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
