V2: Now without test emails ending up on the mailing list. And with the
correct title prefix.

I noticed that the systemd services referenced the XENCONSOLED_ARGS
variable, but it was missing from xencommons.
I actually ran into this when experimenting with a Qubes patch where I
thought I needed to modify this variable. It turned out to not be the
case, but I figure it's good to include this for sake of completeness.

Two further remarks: Patch series want to have the patches sent "in reply to"
the cover letter, such that the whole thing appears as a single mail thread.
For singular patches, generally no cover letter is required (thus avoiding
the question of threading).

I don't understand why it's not present on the mailing list, the
"In-Reply-To" header is present in the patch file. Maybe outlook is
stripping it, I'll have to look into it.

As for the second point, I'll make sure to keep that in mind.

Thanks,

If you send using Outlook, why don't you simply send the patch(es) as
replies to the cover letter? That's what I'm doing using Thunderbird
(i.e. like you I'm not using "git send-email").

I do use "git send-email" actually, I have it set up to use their SMTP
servers. I figured I would do as the Romans do, I assumed that
"git send-email" would be the path of least resistance.

I have figured out why the messages don't thread though. Outlook seems
to be rewriting the "Message-ID" header, but then fails to update the
"In-Reply-To" headers.

I'll make a gmail address for future patches, seeing Outlook is mailing
list unfriendly.
