Fair enough. What do you think about always running buildmimeproc but having an option about whether to process mhbuild directives? Something like "automhbuilddirectives: 1" or something like that (it would default to "0"). I'm just thinking out loud here. My basic concerns is that I think nmh has to start sending MIME messages all of the time now because (as we've seen plenty of times) we get it wrong by default. Calling mhbuild is the easiest way of doing that. But having a situation where # in the beginning of the line causes the mail to fail is to me an intolerable situation to present to unsophisticated users. I'm fine with the #on/#off directives; I can see their usefulness. Send in the code and we'll add it. >[1] someone mentioned escaping: thanks -- it looks like doubling the > '#' character, just at the beginning of the line, will get you a > single # in the output. is that right? Yes. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
