Both Outlook and Gmail can do inline replies and plain text. There

I would kindly suggest using inline/text when possible.

Up-to you really. FWIW using cmake/autoconf/etc. is a huge overkill.
The original makefile was missing a few things* worth 10-20 lines of

Must have missed this part. Thanks for the correction.
