If it *really* came thru vger (HTML in it ?), then
that address would be postmaster@vger.kernel.org
Even if it didn't, at least I am curious at what
you really got. (Same address.)
Do remember to forward *ALL* headers. The all revealing
trace data is carried in "Received:" headers, after all,
and most common email clients seem to make it extremely
hard to see those. (And I limit myself at that, one
particular vendor screws up email STANDARDS so bad that
you really would not believe me anyway...)

"click on email and find an image" ?
Oh no, you do use HTML displaying "email clients"..
I see never anything such, but then I am an "old-fart"
who thinks that HTML has no license to be in email in
the first place.
