Hi James,

I looked at Documentation/email-clients.txt. There is no info about
outlook. So I believe Jeremy is right. 

Is attachment acceptable for my first submission? Meanwhile I will find
out if I can use other email client in my company.

Jing

The fix is not to use Outlook -- I've never known anyone to be able
to get it not to mangle email.  If you're stuck with that, try attaching
the patch as a text document, if that's acceptable to James.

I know someone that uses mutt on Windows, and it seems to work fine.

Yes ... attachments can be tolerated for people who are forced to use
outlook.  We had a similar issue with Adaptec engineers.  There are
rumours that outlook can be persuaded not to mangle text, but everyone
who claims to be able to do it has been unable to reproduce under
laboratory conditions.

Thanks James. I am trying unix mail command. It seems to be working
fine. I will resubmit once I make sure everything is ok. 

Again, sorry about the trouble.

Jing
