The weird thing is, if you are in Outlook (Express), the digest messages
show up as an attachment and if you open it, you can reply normaly.
Which means OE must be performing some sort of digest "bursting". Fine for
them, if they reply without sending the rest of the 'effin digest.
Do you know, why it does not work for others?
Because digest bursting is NOT part of an email standard. Heck, email
digests aren't either.
I have the need to kill HTML parts of messages. :-/
That's possible to do, direct multipart and text/html messages into some
filter or another. I don't do that myself - I prefer to remind senders
that HTML is unwelcome on the lists. If someone composes their message in
HTML expecting the formatting to convey information, or to make a pretty
table, etc, simply stripping the HTML (assuming there's even a valid
corresponding text/plain attachment) will leave you with a message which
lacks some of the information the sender was expecting.
Attachments are allowed, because we are posting Datasheets, Schematics
and similares, but I do not want to be bothered with tonns of HTML.
My attachment logic isolates specific types of attachments, HTML, vcards,
etc - and provides specific messages for them, falling out to a generic
attachment message for anything there isn't specific info for.
Oulook Express is realy specialiste to transform 4 lines of standard
text and 8 lines of C-Code into a CSS-HTML-Monster of over 30 kByte.
Embedding stylesheets, plus using an abundance of whitespace where it isn't
needed is a great way to add bloat.
Please, do you have a template (the text) for the bounce you create?
[digest subject]
You are trying to reply to a digest message without changing the subject
line. Please resend your message, but change the subject line to reflect
the content of your mail. This is to make it easier for other listers to
see what your message is about, and simplifies searching of the list
archives.
If you have included the text of the digest itself, ensure that you have
appropriately trimmed your reply to just the portions of the individual
digest message you are replying to, rather than including the full text of
the digest (which in turn, would cause your message to be rejected again).
