Sort of handy for watching for when the drivers I use actually change or new features get added. But reading over then thousand line patches that get posted in 7 parts is kinda awkward. It would be cool if someone wrote a digest format for patch files. Each file could show up as a separate article making it easy to jump straight to the file I want to see. Hmm, thinking about this it might make more sense to write a patch-mode.el and shar-mode.el and just have nndoc call them on the article. I could try writing this, and probably will try. But I'm not sure I'll be able to do it -- greg Date: Sat, 6 Jan 96 23:01:46 -0500 From: Mail Delivery Subsystem Subject: Returned mail: Unable to deliver mail To: gsstark@MIT.EDU ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 554 gsstark...

That is, use their 5+ line signature in the From header of their mail messages. Gnus doesn't simplify the header in any way when this happens, it does something like this: +[ 26: --------------------] Cockatrices, Basilisks and other Gargoyle Manufacturers From: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Obviously the best it can do is some kind of heuristic, but it seems like Gnus should be able to tell at least sometimes that it's not looking at the author's name. I would need to see a few more examples before I even had a decent suggestion for what the heuristic should be. -- greg
