No, unless your mailer will corrupt them otherwise. If you encode or attach them, instead of just pasting them, then I can't just hit (R)eply to comment on them, and I can't read them in my mailer - I have to save them to disk first, then bring them up in a separate editor, then paste them back into the mailer to comment on them. If your "file attach" function attaches them as plain 8-bit unencoded text (not base64 or quoted-printable), that's acceptable, because MIME basically leaves it as unchanged text. It's harder to read when mimeified, but I can still actually read it in the mailer. Perhaps you have some strange belief that I apply patches without actually *reading* them first? ;-) -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Send a message to cygwin-unsubscribe@sourceware.cygnus.com
