Btw, Linas - even if you can't fix your broken mail setup, what you _can_
do is to always make sure that the patches you send out have

From: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com>

as the first line of the body - then the tools will figure out to use that
instead of the broken mail headers. Ok?

(This is true in general - so anybody else who knows that they send out
emails from a strange address that they'd rather have show up as their
"real" email address instead in the changelogs can do the same).

Linus

PS. It's _damn_ hard to type "Linas". Every time, that "a" just becomes an
"u" for me. My fingers obviously have certain things hard-coded ;)
