Hi,
	Does anyone can tell me why some of my patches were blocked in the
mailing list.
	I do not use attachment. The body of the mail is not exceed 40KB in
size.

We are filtering by means of "bogofilter", and we are training it
with all messages gone thru the list as "ham" -- but words that it
does not know are neutral to the statistics so entirely new kind
of message will easily receive "that is junk" treatment.

The rejection message does tell couple technical details, including
where to contact to ask advice.

A snippet from the 'Bogofilter at VGER' announcment:

...

IF we take it into use, it will start rejecting messages
at SMTP input phase, so if it rejects legitimate message,
you should get a bounce from your email provider's system.
(Or from zeus.kernel.org, which is vger's backup MX.)

In such case, send the bounce with some explanations to 
[off-list ref] -- emails to that address
are explicitely excluded from all filtering!

Well, I do not receive any rejection message. I sent out four patches.
Three of them reached the mailing list. One seemed to disappear. I was
informed nothing.
