"emerge --info" is a complete waste of time.

it's also nice to have that information actually _in_ my mailbox and not of at the end of some attachment URL, considering i'm offline 5 days of the week. i've been in this situation a few times now, where i've needed an attachment from a bug i'm working on and had to wait half a week to do anything with it.

yeah i'm a corner case, and needing an AT's emerge --info isn't that common, but why cut these corners when we don't have to? especially since the reason for doing so is to save someone from having to actually scroll a mouse wheel or hit delete, or be bothered with getting an email when a AT posts their info in a comment (which you'll still get if they do it as an attachment anyways).
