That's exactly what happens. With the prefs you mentioned, Mozilla
should show the "plain text". What is seen in the msg source. And what
4.x shows. What 4.x shows was never "consistent" as you ask Mozilla to do.
Again: If you want to see anything else from what "View | Message
Source" shows you, you ask us *not* to show the "plain text", but do
some prettying-up.

You don't really ask for "plain text". You ask us to do fancy fix-up of
the original source. The "plain text" does not always contain "> > >

post, and worse, like
"> BB> | : Hjt] > cited text".
At least, that's what I, honestly, understood from you so far.

bla bla. What does this have to do with standards? RFC822 and RFC2646
are standards, and we follow them.

Sorry, then you are in the wrong group. The mozilla.* groups are for
discussion between developers and testers only.

Sorry, but I have seen way too much discussion about this already.
