 I keep wondering what they do for vger.kernel.org mailing lists and the 
LKML in particular that we can't to avoid `From:' header rewriting.  Our 
patch volume is nothing to theirs, which is probably why we can cope most 
of the time (I use my outbox to apply my own patches for example), though 
they do partially avoid the issue by relying more on GIT pulls than we do.
