(...) I'm pretty sure that's the peeron extension doing that. I'll have to figure out exactly what it's doing wrong, but probably need to tell it to ignore <code> blocks, or somesuch. (19 years ago, 4-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Yup, that was it. Upgrade to the new version (0.8), it's fixed there. Oddity - for some reason my FF wasn't able to detect there's a new version when I did "find updates". If that happens to you too, let me know! As a workaround, I had to (...) (19 years ago, 4-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

This is still an ongoing issue for LUGNET and people who have to occasionally post to the lugnet.robotics hierarchy. However, some interesting questions about the gateway arise. For instance, I keep finding that my email address is specified as the (...) (19 years ago, 13-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | A Question about Posting Behavior

I have had this question in my mind since Todd initiated the color-coding for responses in a thread: when someone replies to a post, why doesn't the number of arrows correspond to the text of the poster? For example, if someone named Sensible Party (...) (19 years ago, 14-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) Well, the reason is because "Sensible Person" didn't actually write the text "In lugnet.admin.general, Sensible Party wrote:", so it's not really something that they said. I believe it's the standard for old text email quotings and newsgroup (...) (19 years ago, 14-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) Well, there's a little more to it, actually. Basically, you need the code to figure out what's what. Since LUGNET was designed to work with SMTP and NNTP, the exact string "In lugnet.xxx.yyy, ZZZ wrote:" won't be consistant. Right now, the (...)

(...) The only semi-tricky part would be to identify the 'XXX said' line - though, it's a safe assumption that if the line before a quoted region has exactly one sentance and ends with a ':', it's part of the quote.
