MailMate should already do this. If you have an example of it not 
happening then you are welcome to send it to me.


Here are some old thoughts on the subject:

Well, it would help if the chain of „Re“ is not becoming longer. Which is 
currently the case. So, MM is adding a new level on a reply too.

Maybe it can be implementet as some bundle script which i can activate manually?

Can a bundle command executed on a the Message Editor while writing the answer?

I don’t see an output command for `setSubject`/`setBody`

*Whatever* can be different language variants. In Danish it is ’Sv: 
’ (short for Svar) for example, which is perfectly valid – even in 
reply to an English language mail. Still only one of them of course 
…


The use of localized prefixes is a design flaw I believe was introduced 
by Microsoft. They did not consider the consequences of doing this (or 
many other of the “changes” introduced by Microsoft).


The `Re:` prefix should not be seen as being an English word. It's a 
“symbol” (like an HTML tag).


The email client is free to *display* it localized which is what 
Microsoft should have done. And maybe MailMate will allow this to be 
done if it should some day be localized itself.

It *can* be, but not within the standard definition of the Subject header.

Good mailers just have one "Re: ".  No "whatever".

However, is it possible to configure what is used as reply marker? I 
would like to have „RE-X“ where X is a counter for the number of 
replies. And is there a way to remove those reply marker trails and 
replace them with a single reply marker?


You can change the subject line of a broken email to unbreak it.

I don't think MailMate can be configured to send broken email.

2018-12-07 Thread Robert M. Münch
Hi,

you all know subject lines like „re: re: re: re: ….“ Good mailer just have one 
„RE:“ or whatever.

However, is it possible to configure what is used as reply marker? I would like 
to have „RE-X“ where X is a counter for the number of replies. And is there a 
way to remove those reply marker trails and replace them with a single reply 
marker?
