[PATCH] Correction to project FAQ regarding Win9x

>> This has probably been pointed out before, but the "What operating
systems

>> Win95/98/Me (due to BDB limitations). With the advent of Fsfs this is
no

server on

> True.  Please could you send a patch?

See if this wording suits.

Well, not quite everyone else.  Mozilla Mail recognised this second version as an attachment, and also displayed it in line (automatically uudecoded). :-)

It's still inlined and uuencoded.  Not sure why OE is doing that.  I
think you're going to have to use the paste in the body by hand
technique.  Unfortunately, OE will probably wrap the patch and mess it
up.

Also FYI mutt is a mail client, which almost always seems to know what
to do with peoples attachments.  In fact this is the first time I've
ever seen a uuencoded attachment placed inline in the body of a message.
So I wasn't saying anyone was a mutt.

Yeah saw that.

To see what everyone else is seeing with your patches look here:

That mutt would be me ;-)
Sorry, Outlook Express = no control. I have re-attached with a .txt
extension which may inline better. But when read in OE itself, .txt
attachments are not inlined either :-(

The log is at the top of the patch. Trying again ...

Yeah I object.  I have no idea what the patch is.  It just shows up as
an encoded inlined file.  Which mutt has no idea what to do with.
Please if you're going to attach files use MIME and do it with
text/plain.

Also please include a log message or some sort of description of the
change.

Thanks.

By the way, if you could attach patches as type text/plain rather than application/octet-stream, that would make them easier to see.
