Thus spake Ken Hornstein:
I finally got fed up with all the garbage in replies to quoted-printable
messages, so decided to try out replyfilter just now. I have this in my
mhl.reply:
from:nocomponent,formatfield="Thus spake %(decode(friendly{text})):"
It's not clear to me if this will mess things up or not. Maybe it won't.
(Thinking more about it ... it should be fine).
I've tried without this line and what I get is the output... without
this line. So I think it's not what's messing things up.
What I'm seeing when I reply to a quoted printable message from a friend
of mine is the "Thus spake" line, followed by six blank >-quoted lines,
followed by the (un-q-p'd) text of the original message, but with all of
the blank lines (e.g., the lines between paragraphs!) removed.
Is it running it through par? I'm wondering what happens if you change
the filter to "cat"?
I'm sure it's running through par. I have par installed, and when I change
the $filterprogram from 'par' to 'cat', I get each paragraph of the reply
as one very long line, instead of lines broken at 70-some characters. With
cat, however, I'm not losing the inter-paragraph blank lines, nor am I
getting blank lines inserted at the beginning.
