I I understood it before too. I proposed this JS approach, as I wondered why people would anyhow look at the boilerplate! (That's the main point of the project right!)​

Depends on your definition of "boilerplate". I consider quoted mailing lists' footers and those stupid corporate legal notices to be boilerplate, and they're generally far more annoying than "sent from my iPhone" because they often separate the text from attachments and the like by more than a few lines.

Worse, quoted footers are often actively harmful, because they contain "unsubscribe" links for somebody else (but all the user can see is "click here to unsubscribe").

I completely forgot this "unsubscribe" links! Thanks for reminding :-) Will add in the application! Also, I want to know if I am in a correct path to make " Boilerplate stripping AND better content filtering / handling error messages" a worthy GSoC project.​​ All this discussion here in the mailing lists encourages me to learn more and do more and I am looking forward to submit my application for an early review!
