Yeah, I have a complicated email setup between my personal and
professional emails.
I'll see how I can fix that.

I was also wondering if I shouldn't subtract I40E_PACKET_HDR_PAD from
the mfs to be more accurate, can you confirm this ?

If one can have a look at what is the exact procedure to fix the MFS
size when too small, that would be lovely/ideal in addition to my
patch.
