Fair enough, I can admit this because I don't know the mm specifics. However, my initial point was about the long message which might be cut into pieces during Oops or whatever and the user will get the first parts only. Depends on what you consider as a higher priority to print the order might be different. Initial patch suggested to print the new fields first. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
