I think Steven has some buggered email system, he has other emails
being eaten by lkml too, and apparently other mail gateways (because
you were direct-cc'd on the original).

His email sender doesn't quote names with "," in them, and has headers
like this:

   <mika.westerberg@...ux.intel.com>, Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@...gle.com>,
   Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>

which is apparently against SMTP rules. The magic line is:

  X-Mailer: Claws Mail 3.9.2 (GTK+ 2.24.20; x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

The tag-line for that mailer is quite appropriate: "The email reader
that bites". That's what they put in the title on their web-page.

Because it sure bites. Except the claws people seemed to think that
was supposed to be a good thing. They clearly don't know the slang
meaning of "that bites".

Or maybe they do, and they are just unusually self-aware.

Steven, I'd suggest just jettisoning that mailer.
