But I wrote them in a scripting language which has modules to cope with standard-compliant email, and I have no trouble with other transfer encodings at all. You really need to do the same. Better you fix your scripts than continually demanding that the rest of the development community conform to your restrictive requirements. Daniel, I believe that you are really trying to help make the kernel better. But I fear that you may be having the opposite effect by discouraging contributions from others. Please consider taking a step back and thinking about your interactions and the nature of your efforts; I think you may find that there are more productive and encouraging ways for you to contribute.
