Hi Chipp,

Get a Mac and use Apple Mail. Apple Mail has no problem with  
Richmond's e-mails. Also, i think that it is perfectly alright if  
Richmond chooses to use older e-mail clients. Of modern e-mail clients  
can't cope with that, then those modern clients should be adjusted.

I do notice the problem sometimes, when I use gmane's newsgroup  
functionality, but I guess we'll just have to accept that. At least,  
Richmond makes sure that the right subject is in the subject header.

I admire Richmond's inventiveness in finding ways to recycle equipment  
and keeping it running for as long as possible. If I understand it  
correctly, it is not that easy to find reliable suppliers of new  
equipment at a reasonable price, where he lives. So, if you are really  
annoyed, consider donating him a new MacBook Pro ;-)
