This is really a PITA! I reply to dozens of messages each day, and cannot afford editing the standard decorations of each mail. What you see is the default way Rmail in Emacs quotes messages; if that's deemed inappropriate (I must admit it's the first time in 15 years I'm asked to do this), please someone submit a change to the Emacs developers' list to modify this behavior. Alternatively, why cannot your mail reflector convert them as it does with the addresses in the headers? I _hate_ to be a slave of software. > Well, aren't there also quote a lot of Linux systems with ntfstools these > days? It's not even just a windows feature necessarily. Yes, probably. But the thing is, only on Windows we can confuse a colon that is part of a file name with a drive letter and with a Make delimiter. > But why on earth anyone would put a makefile in an ADS I couldn't imagine. (Not only a Makefile, but _any_ file.) That's my opinion as well, which is why I said I didn't consider supporting this too important. But users are a funny bunch: they always tend to need the most obscure features... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
