In msg10428.html, which has since been fixed, I probably should have known better than to start a line with "From", since this bug is somewhat well-known. Using the F-word is Fine as long as it doesn't start in column 1. (Maybe if you put a C in column 1 to indicate that the line is a comment, the archiver will accept it.) -- Doug Ewell * Arvada, Colorado, USA * RFC 4645 * UTN #14 http://www.ewellic.org http://www1.ietf.org/html.charters/ltru-charter.html http://www.alvestrand.no/mailman/listinfo/ietf-languages ˆ _______________________________________________ Ltru mailing list Ltru@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ltru
