        Hi,
right, it is almost the same to what Patrick posted here, what had been
received at the mailing list. That means the mailing list didn't break
the text/plain part, it received it broken.

I'm not sure I follow. If you've set Evolution to not compose in HTML,
then replying to an HTML mail will cause a question to remove
formatting and it'll do it.

I do not think it's true. What you want is to use Preformatted
paragraph format, then the lines will not wrap, thus what you paste
from a terminal will look similar to what the terminal shows (terminal
can also wrap lines on the window width boundary). Thus look at the top
toolbar, where is:

[ Plain Text v ][ Normal      v ][justify left][justify center][......

click on the 'Normal' and pick 'Preformatted' from there. It works for
the selected paragraphs.

        Bye,
        Milan
