And by using it you can also not get any more replies from me, it truly is your choice. :-)" That seems a bit silly to me. Isn't the message far more important than how it gets to the recipient, just as long as it does? Am I the first person ever you're threatening to ignore because you don't like my email address? I can come up with far worse ones, I've got 63 characters in a subdomain to play with :-) "I also certainly am never going to apply a patch from you with a Signed-off-by: or From: that uses one of those throw-away addresses either." I never expected you to, which is why this email address is in the source and the associated documentation. I just prefer not to use webmail for mailing lists.
