Hi Guys

The situation has changed now.
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.
