Re: More Invisible header fields


Hi Jeffrey,

>+    "X-fmx-:"

Is "X-fmt-:" real? Or, is it "X-fmt-" as a prefix without the colon?
(I have never noticed either form in the wild myself.)

You might want to avoid the use of <tab> characters out to your new
comment designations. All (most?) of the rest in the file uses spaces
between the entry and the comment.

Re: More Invisible header fields

Basically I went through my inbox and found all the annoying headers
and added them to the list.

Sorry, it should have been "X-fmx-".  I didn't find anything about it on
google, but it is in an e-mail.

I'll fix that.

This is the header in question:

     X-Usenet-Provider: http://www.giganews.com

Should I exclude just this one?

I guess so.

Nice info, but yeah, we can add it. I think I'd be inclined to start
with X-Usenet-Provider and only go to X-Usenet- if there are about three
or more of those. Yes?

The more I think about it, the more I think so. It's on par with To and
cc. Could you delete that one while you're in there, please?

Re: More Invisible header fields

Does this address everyone's concerns?

I'd be curious to see some of these. I'm not sure we'd want to remove
this entire class--some of these might be useful! Hmmm, looks like we
already block Newsgroups though, which would have been one I would have
proposed to see :-). Oh well. Never mind. Go for it.

Good catches on the X-fmx-: and tabs, Mark. I concur. How did those get
in there? We have a "indent-tabs-mode: nil" local variable.

Newsgroup ?

We should see those, shouldn't we?

Re: More Invisible header fields

p.s. Note my new comment: 

  ;; Keep fields alphabetized (set sort-fold-case to t first).

Hmmm, perhaps I should have been more explicit, "Keep fields
alphabetized in a case-insensitive way (set sort-fold-case to t first)."
Feel free to update the text if you think it's necessary.
