We are informed that SP2 is already in place in ST and mail client is not doing any tampering. When i send a mail using git send-email then it receives fine on outlook but on thunderbird, tabs are converted to spaces. This doesn't happen with every patch on thunderbird, but only a few. And observation is that it happens only with big patches. (more than 500 lines) Any idea, how to solve issue now on thunderbird?? viresh.
