Hmm, do other emails from other users get blocked? I wonder if it's lack of DKIM (which gets invalidated by the list sig vger appends) or something else...

And you would rather see something like:

Actually, my initial inclination was to use the '|' character which is what mutt does

2016-07-20 21:10 | } [PATCH v4 8/8] doc: revisions - clarify reachability examples Philip Oakley 2016-07-20 22:22 | } Junio C Hamano 2016-08-11 21:50 | ` [PATCH v5 00/12] Update git revisions Philip Oakley 2016-08-11 21:50 | ` [PATCH v5 01/12] doc: use 'symmetric difference' consistently Philip Oakley 2016-06-25 19:49 ` Junio C Hamano 2016-06-27 13:37 ` Philip Oakley 2016-06-27 15:08 ` Junio C Hamano 2016-06-27 15:39 ` Philip Oakley

It should be doable, and the '`' immediately following the last '|' probably ought to be a link to the parent, too.

I would also like to use '}' (as above) or '+' where mutt would use "├─>" or just '├', but I don't think I can introduce multibyte chars without causing problems for some users.

Anyways, it's definitely on my ever-growing todo list.
