which may be informative to humans, but offers more of a
parsing challenge than information to software.
Many thanks to all who responded! It does seem like In-Reply-To is more of a
nuisance than anything else...
Which brings me to my next question: How can I get MHonArc to X out the
'In-Reply-To' email address if it includes one? I have a rather aggressive
policy of removing email addresses from my mailing list archives and it is
the last 'hole' that I need to plug :)
I got this regex from the MHonArc archive which I use to x out email
addresses in the body of my messages:
s/<A\s+HREF=\"mailto:[\!\%\w\.\-+=\/]+(_at_)[\w\(_dot_)\-]+\">(mailto:|)([\!\%\w\.\-+=\
/]+@)([\w\.\-]+)<\/A>/$2.('x' x length($3))/gie;
s|([\!\%\w\.\-+=/]+@)([\w\.\-]+)|$1.('x' x length($2))|gie;
I'm sure it could be done better, but I am certainly not good with regex's
and it is quite a bit better than what I could do (besides it works well). I
know the above would do the trick, but in what MHonArc file(s) do I put it
in and where in the file(s)?
Many thanks,
Manuel
