Good. Now, could you please get something resembling a MUA or at least RTFM to figure out how to make Mozilla cut this "card for foobar" crap? "X-Terminally-Clueless: yes" in headers would convey precisely the same message and would have a benefit of being shorter. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

C program instructions are in ASCII, data certainly isn't restricted to that. If you or your M*A can't or won't deal with anything but plain text, then filter it. Plain text is clearly in the minority of emails throughout the world and the people on LKML seem in general not to care about MIME and frequently use it.
