I hope you realize that was all in good fun; I really wish we never broke anything, but I don't think it's avoidable. >I don't use any custom mhl so I'm fine if it changes. *BUT*, I think that >the default behavior after the change should be the same as the default >behavior today unless there's a good reason to change it. It would probably >be nice for heavy mhl users to have a converter from old to new. So you want the default behavior of mhl to simply dump out the complete body of a message, without doing any MIME decoding at all? That just seems lousy to me, and also incredibly non-useful. Are people depending on that behavior? >BTW, this may just be laziness on my part, but one thing that really annoys >me these days is receiving an email sent from a phone.

If >not, it's something that I think needs to be addressed. If I was a smart-ass, I'd say, "Boy, you really DON'T read the release notes, do you?" :-) But yes, there's been a solution since 1.5 came out. It's called replyfilter, and it's in the nmh contrib directory; it should be part of your install. If you look at it, it will contain directions on how to set it up. There was even a recent email thread about people trying to use it (but ultimately Norm decided he didn't want to use it). I won't claim it's perfect, but I use it every day and it's a whole lot better than it used to be. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
