I've been inflicting "format=flowed" (rfc2646) on you gentle people here.
The idea is that nobody has to think. No need to preformat anything to
any specific line length.
Even the quoting is supposed to be automatically adjusted, which
solves a real problem in the pre-rfc2646 world, because there was
never any way to deal with wraps on re-quoted materials, such as
this if I can try to emulate it by composing this on the fly, by a
little guesswork and cheating. Hint: the way to emulate it is to
end lines that should be flowed with a single space. The as-sent
lines are required(?) to be less than 80 chars long.
One benefit that I can see is that quoted text is reflowed by the
client, to accomodate window sizing and -- perhaps even more
important -- to accomodate font size changes (eg CTRL +) in
thunderbird. That I really, really appreciate!
Does anybody notice?
Does it cause problems in mail client?
Any opinions?
Regards,
