Re: gEDA-user: Random thoughts on the future interface of PCB

Hi,
Thanks for reminding me. This message came through just fine. At this point I don't want to bother anyone else with it. I can normally tell that a message has been munged this way because replies are indistinguishable from the original text. But the post that started this was an original so that I thought maybe the author had sent it that way...
Like I said in the other post, there are only a handful of senders that I get this problem with and only then in two mailing lists. Unfortunately one of them is the main contributor in the other mailing list so I have a hard time reading much there.
Thanks for making the effort. At least I know what is going on now. At some point I'll likely switch to T'bird and have to come up the learning curve again. 

Rick

This was me. The culprit is a bug in your mail client. It drops all carriage
returns in mails sent with transfer encoding "base64". What I did, was to
advise my news client to not change the encoding in any way (I read the
mailing list via gmane).

I use different computers. I guess, the specific news reader preference did
not make it to all of them. This message should display fine on your client.
Does it?


> I would switch to T'bird,

According to wikipedia, there is a project to replace the original eudora
engine with an open soureced one based on thunderbird. The name of the
project is penelope. Its first release under the name "Eudora OSE" was in
September 2010.

Did you try this open sourced version?
