Yeah, here's how I feel about that: - Traceability - I mean, why is this an issue? Who would really care? I'm trying to imagine the scenario here; we a) leak a header called "Forward" b) someone notices, c) someone CARES enough to decide this is a problem, and d) wants to track down the MUA responsible. - Polluting the namespace - I mean, also ... really, is this a thing we should have to worry about? If it happens, and it seems like it's easy enough to prevent. These are pretty abstract concepts to me; I'm trying to see how this really would impact anything. Also, copying other art ... the few MUAs that do stuff similar to this (mutt is the prime example I could find) use headers for this purpose without any special prefix, and no one seems to care. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
