Now you are saying that when replying to a message in plain text mode and switching to HTML mode, quote characters aren't converted to nice colored borders. I agree that this is not ideal, but this isn't exactly the same issue as described above. ;) And I guess it might be a bit tricky to fix. >> I'll repeat myself, but I believe that HTML is supposed to be shown >> as-is.

In text/html, you there's no such thing as a quote char because you can (and probably should) use <blockquote> tags. > And with regards to "what's the point for the sender to use HTML" - this you > shouldn't really ask me. ;-) I haven't a clue, this is my very first HTML > e-mail. > > I'll be sending this message twice - first as HTML, then as plain text. > Decide yourself what you like better.

Of course, I liked the result in text/plain better, but I think this is a problem with message composition, not with display. By the way, I'm using my desktop client at the moment, not RC, but judging from the screenshots, it yelds the same result as RC would (the result that I expect and you don't).
