This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

While we're getting nasty...
How about all these multi-line adress signatures and favorite quotes that take up so much space. Who cares?
I hate cutting those out all the time.  Why put your signature on EVERY email?
We've got your email address already.  Save it for the occasional reminder, not every damn post, please.
