Poll: Quoting behaviour
Hi, as pointed out on #mutt, the quoting behaviour of the new format=flowed (f=f for short) handler as added to the source after 1.5.14 is different than before: When replying to f=f messages, empty lines are left empty whereby an empty line is a line without further content after the quoting characters. So the question is how to proceed. The following options are available: 1) Introduce $quote_empty that makes this behaviour configurable 2) Restore the original behaviour for the f=f handler 3) Do 1 + 2 Opinions? bye, Rocco -- :wq! --

It also occurred to me that I'm not clear on just what original behavior means. I had assumed that original behavior meant per my patch-1.5.5.1.gj.stuff_all_quoted.3 patch or the equivalent. I definitely don't like the unpatched behavior of 1.5.12. I haven't tried the latest 1.5.14 f=f handler.
