Re: Pending BIRD 9.0 (cleaned up)

To our bosses (with more power),

I think we should complain to Lotus (CCMAIL) because this is driving me crazy
too. Especially when I get ASCII files for spice. Try to clean that up and not
miss a negative sign for a number!

Arpad

          Derrick, et al,

          For some bizarre reason, our mail program, cc:Mail, chooses
          to add carriage returns and dashes and generally mangles
          files. I always go through and clean them up before posting
          to the reflector. When it comes back from vhdl.org, the
          program does it again. I have assumed that it only happend
          to incoming mail and have dealt with it that way. I suspect
          this is happening to Derrick, too, since he is on the same
          mail program.

          But I may be wrong-- is the corruption happening on the way
          out, too, or are we at Intel just being penalized on
          incoming mail. In other words, did you, Derrick, clean up
          Bird 9 because of these extraneous incoming additions,
          courtesy of Lotus' cc:Mail, or did the mail get mangled
          going out? Did other members of the forum receive an
          un-mangled version from me, or did some lines look like the
          following:

 ***************************************************************
 - **

          etc., etc.?

          I did notice that the word "pending" was put in in the filed
          of when accepted. Good change.

          Will
