The problem was the dos style encoding of |line endings that we corresponded about a couple of months ago.

hmmm. There is TODO note on that attachment stuff. I also know that, but in practice it works without it: *luckily*. Since this MUA will produce ugly output otherwise (you see the CR then, .. if the font supports the symbol), well. But yes, that should be done, too. |On Mon, 16 Dec 2024, Steffen Nurpmeso steffen-at-sdaoden.eu |s-nail| wrote: |... |> i really would like to know. |> Simply leaving off markers, i mean, ok, but with multiple parts |> you only get an impenetrable heap of text? ?? | |Yes, there can be times when you want the markers, but I don't think I |get many messages where that would happen. Anyway, I was asking whether |there is already a way to turn off the markers, and there isn't, so too |bad, I'll live with it. Well, to be honest, i would rather have a complete library/engine and an external TUI or GUI (or script) drive it as desired. I do not know whether that is still in TODO. Other than that we could only offer some kind of format string producer (fat), or simply toggle which simply prints the PART.NUMBER.SERIES: of a part, instead of .. more. If i recall correctly that is how Heirloom mailx was. *Maybe* we could overload *quiet* for this, at least for v14.10, then let's see what the future brings. Did that. Also printing info now anyway in the other case, that it is so ugly will hopefully vanish not too far in the future.
