Ok, now I'm /really/ confused. Procmail logs show:

From ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Wed Nov 02 06:56:46 2016
Subject: [PATCH v9 00/16] re-enable DAX PMD support
Folder: incoming/xfs-linux/new/1478030206.9177_1.dastard 5348
From ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Wed Nov 02 06:56:48 2016
Subject: [PATCH v9 01/16] ext4: tell DAX the size of allocation holes
Folder: incoming/xfs-linux/new/1478030208.9182_1.dastard 3725
From ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Wed Nov 02 06:56:49 2016

.....

so procmail has seen them, and put them all in the same bucket like
it has for everything else.

But only patch 0 appeared in my linux-xfs mail box - the rest of the
files logged by procmail don't exist. No errors or indications of
failures anywhere. They've just vanished into thin air...

OK, thanks, I'll pull it in.

That's what I'm really confused - I replied immediately after this
email appeared in my in-box - I was working from v8 because I didn't
know this version existed. This v9 patch zero email hit procmail on
"Wed Nov 02 06:56:46 2016" and i replied immediately when i saw it:
"On Thu, Nov 03, 2016 at 12:58:26PM +1100,"

So there's some 30 hours between it passing through procmail and
mutt adding it to my inbox. And mutt hasn't see any of the other
emails in the thread.

/me sighs and wonders how much other email has been going missing
lately....

> Sorry for the confusion,

Clearly not your fault, Ross.

Will do, but I've got to find my way out of WTF-Landia first...

Cheers,

Dave.
