Hmm.. Yes it did... I found them in junk-pile, and the reason was:

From: Sam Vilain <sam@vilain.net>
Subject: [RFC] [PATCH 3/7] [vserver] Add /proc visibility of vserver info
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2006 18:13:35 +1200
To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org
Cc: Herbert Poetzl <herbert@13thfloor.at>,
Eric W.Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>,
OpenVZ developers list <dev@openvz.org>,
Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com>, Serge E.Hallyn <serue@us.ibm.com>,
Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>
Illegal-Object: Syntax error in Cc: addresses found on vger.kernel.org:
Cc: Eric W.Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
^ ^-missing end of address
\-extraneous tokens in address



Your MUA software doesn't do proper text element quoting, when said
element has RFC-822 specials in it.

Had the Cc: been either of following, there would not have been this
syntax error biting on junk filter:

Eric W Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
"Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

Have fun.
