Hi Thomas, hi Overseers

I can confirm that those are stripped off!

I did sent an email with three attachments:
* test.txt (text/plain)
* test.diff (text/x-diff)
* the company's disclaimer

The attachment with 'text/x-diff' MIME was removed :-(

A different mail archiver is now used it seems.
For the mails before the sourceware move, one can access the old one too,
e.g.
https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc-bugs/2020-03/
is the old one vs.
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-bugs/2020-March/
I've been using the gcc-bugs mail archive all the time in the past, but I'm
afraid pipermail at least in current configuration is significant step back
and I'll likely just use my mailbox from now on.
Some reasons:
1) the by date monthly list of mails used to be ordered newest to oldest
mails first, now it is oldest to newest, so when dealing with new stuff one
has to always scroll down
2) the dates and times of mails used to be shown (date as a section in the
list, times in the left column), now there is nothing, so without clicking
something it is hard to guess how exactly old it is
3) the columns were nicer (date, subject left justified, email right
justified, now there are no columns)
4) some headers were shown, now there is nothing
5) emails used to be sanitized against harvesters, now they aren't
6) there used to be a Raw text URL to grab the raw email, now there is nothing

Hello.

I agree with Jakub that the listed feature were nicer about the previous mail 
list
archiver. On the other hand, I agree that we want to use something more recent 
that
is support and under some development. That said, we did we decide to use 
mailman-2.1
which is a legacy release that can be shortly out of support? Have you consider
using version 3.3.0?

I'm willing to customize the mail archiver, it should be quite simple.
Would it be possible to apply local patches for a RHEL package that's install
on the system?

Thanks,
Martin
