Re: Forwarding html email

2023-04-10 Thread aalinovi
The Proton mail I receive has one attachment (52KB)
and a line that says "empty message".

Opening the attachment simply brings up another screen with one line:

82297.168114492...@eddie.fios-router.home

Opening that attachent brings up another screen with that same line
and "data 52 KB"

Thanks
Arthur

Hi Arthur,

Does Proton reject the whole email?
Or does it appear in the inbox at Proton?

There's also https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/
The key information is your MIME email contains a part with MIME type
message/rfc822.  mhlist will show this too if you forward to yourself.

Thank you.

Doing as you suggest works fine when forwarding to an icloud email

It doesn't work when forwarding to a Proton mail account.

I guess i will have to contact the people at Proton for help.

There are gaps in that explanation of what you do.  Rather than pick
over the fine detail of your set-up, I'll initially suggest trying
something simple.

You're not trying to forward HTML email.  You're trying to forward an
email, any email, as an email rather than a textual representation of
it.  Attaching the email to a new MIME email as a message/rfc822 part
does this.  An easy way to do this is ‘forw -mime 42’ where 42 is the
email's number.  You will see a ‘#forw ...’ at the end of the draft.
After editing the draft, at the ‘What now?’ prompt type ‘mime’ before
sending it in the normal way.

The recipient should be able to treat the attached email as an email in
its own right.
