I had a few little problems here.
- For some reason my email client doesn't like MIME quoted-printable
and cannot correctly extract the plain text. It appears that
globally deleting =\n and globally replacing =3D with = fixes things.
Ho hum. I really should go see if this has been fixed, or hassle
the sylpheed developer(s).
- The driver generates a great storm of scripts/checkpatch.pl
whitespace warnings. Things like using eight spaces instead of a
tab. These really should be fixed, so please take a look at the
checkpatch output then resend?
