Re: [PATCH] inet_parse: Clarify IPv6 comment and error message

Not sure how this "Author email address is mangled" happened.

$ git format-patch -o patches/error-parsing-ipv6 -1

$ git send-email --to='qemu-devel@nongnu.org,Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org>,"Daniel P. Berrangé" <berrange@redhat.com>' \

--smtp-server=foo  patches/error-parsing-ipv6/0001-inet_parse-Clarify-IPv6-comment-and-error-message.patch

It's possible my smtp-server arg munged things incorrectly, but I've done the identical thing for previous patches and not seen this for at least some of them.

Sigh.
