This is my 3rd time sending this e-mail to the list. I've received a few responses, but none from Ximian (nothing on my bug report, #16081, as well), and none that address my specific bug. I continually run across this, because Netscape mail sends text/html only if you specify that Recipient likes HTML in the addressbook.
The problem manifests itself when I receive e-mail with only text/html and no text/plain. When I hit Reply, the quoted text is shown in gray with no indentation or quotation characters. My default send format is Text only, so when I reply, it is impossible for the recipient to figure out what is quoted. It sure would be nice if Evo could have some consistency in quoted text. Currently, text only gets a "> ", text/plain + text/html gets gray indented blocks (which by the way I do not like), and text/html only gets gray unindented blocks. Would it be so difficult to have the last type get at least indented blocks? Dan -----Forwarded Message----- From: Dan Hensley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Evolution List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Evolution] HTML-only e-mails : reply does not indent Date: 09 Feb 2002 14:58:48 +0000 A few months ago I posted a bugzilla (#16081) about this and also e-mailed the list. If I receive an e-mail containing HTML only (i.e. no text/plain), when I reply to it, the quoted text appears in gray, but is not indented. If I send this, and it goes out as text/plain (which it will, unless I explictly specify HTML format, which I usually don't), of course it is impossible visually to determine what text is quoted and what is not. In addition, when I reply to this e-mail, the first line of the quoted text appears on the same line as the tag that says "On <date>, <person> wrote:". This is also wrong. Are these issues something Ximian is planning to fix in the near future?
