Apparently not everyone who uses kmail has the problem. |
| 11 |
Maybe it's the people who use html mail? |
| 12 |
Neil Bothwick's posts often have the "==20", but usually just one or |
| 13 |
two. Some posts are positively riddled with them, to the point of |
| 14 |
being terribly difficult to parse. |
| 15 |
Everytime I look at the headers of such a post it says kmail, but |
| 16 |
not every kmail user has the problem. |
| 17 |
It's also possible the nix-to-news gateway handles html poorly. |
| 18 |
Obviously, slrn is not supposed to handle html (which is how I like |
| 19 |
it). Overall the usenet experience of this list is poor, but of course |
| 20 |
the content is extremely useful. I just don't want all the email, because |
| 21 |
it'll end up on my phone and it'll cost me. |

Probably in the end I'll just end up reading it in a web browser. |
