[MlMt] Limit text width for received format=flowed mails
Hello! I’m giving MailMate a try, and I see that it has support for reflowing incoming format=flowed e-mails. However: is there a way to specify the maximum width that should be used when reflowing text? E.g. 66, or 72. At the moment it uses the full window width (as many other clients do), which is usually too much. Many thanks in advance! ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

Do you mean when displaying or when composing messages? The purpose of “format=flowed” is to get rid of hard-wrapping in emails (which is a bad thing) in a backwards compatible fashion. -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

Yes, I should have clarified: as the subject indicated, I meant only
when displaying incoming mail. Right now, MailMate reflows incoming
mail to occupy the whole width of the display pane; but I would like
to see shorter lines in reflowed text.
Ok, there is no built-in setting for that. You can get something close
though using CSS. Create this path and file:
~/Library/Application\
Support/MailMate/Resources/MmMessagesWebView/stylesheet.css
And add the following lines to the file:
p { max-width: 30em; }
div[markup=none] div { max-width: 30em; }
You may have to change the value 30 to something that works well with
your font choice.
I cannot guarantee that it'll work well for all emails, but it might be
good enough for you.
