And yet another patch falls victim to format=flowed ...

I need some ideas here myself:

I don't want to subscribe from my university mail account -- I like
to keep important messages on server, and the account has a
100 MB or so limit that wouldn't survive a week of lkml traffic.

Which leaves Gmail, but Gmail has the flowed text disease (that
cannot be disabled) and although Gmail offers SMTP/POP, our evil
proxy/NAT setup here wouldn't let me make any use of it to access
it from some other MUA such as pine/mutt.

I use Paul Jackson's wonderful "sendpatchset" script (when sending
patches that start new threads), but it's frustrating not to be able to
reply to existing threads with patches from Gmail itself (from which I
have subscribed to lkml).

I suspect others must have come across this ... any suggestions?


1) talk to the administrators and convince them to allow you to use
gmails SMTP/POP feature with a different MUA so you don't have to use
the web interface.

2) If you have a box available at home (or elsewhere), use that to
relay mail through.

3) Use attachments for patches (sucks, but you may have to).
