Hello Marck,

  A reminder of what Marck D Pearlstone typed on:

MDP Please include a signature delimiter in your messages.

 Not arguing here or trying to start a revolution or siding with anyone
 so please don't feel singled out Marck, I'm just curious...  :)

 He doesn't appear to use a signature at all so why the need for a
 delimiter? The part you quoted is added at the server end, not by the
 sender of the message.

 I can understand the obligatory use of a delimiter when actually using
 a signature but when you don't?

Because of the list footer.
We can't add a signature delimiter to the list footer, because that
would mean that for the rest of us our own signature delimiter would
be invalid since TB uses only the last one.

 There must be something wrong with my setup then. I redirected a html

Wrong? Well... :-)

 I redirected a html formatted solicitors letter to my Wife yesterday and
 the only attachment she received was the word document. Everything else
 was exactly as I received it. no eml or msg attachments at all.

Was that message HTML only? Maybe thats a clue, I haven't tried that.

I just tried this: sent myself a message in HTML format (it has a text
part, too).

But - no matter what I do (alternative or normal forward, redirect), I end
up with the MicroEd  the message as attachment (.eml in the case of
alternative forward, message.html + inline images when using normal
forward/redirect).

I then changed the default editor to HTML only - I still end up with the
original message (plus included images) as attachments.

Whats worse, when I open the attached message.html, its missing the
included picture (of course) - because that is in a separate attachment
after forwarding...

ASK https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=4036

Because of the apparent lack of clarity in the other branch of this
thread, I would like to reiterate and clarify this request.

In popular e-mail clients, when you in-line forward or reply to an
HTML message the formatting of the original message remains in tack.
In TB!, the in-line formatting of the message is lost. IMHO, TB! has
it wrong here and this likely confuses and frustrates new users used
to popular e-mail clients. Further, it frustrates me because I too
would like to forward an HTML formatted e-mail with my comments, but I
am not able to, without destroying the HTML formatting.

While I am ranting, I cannot find an option, in common folders, to
turn off Forward message as mime attachment. You must use Alternate
Forward to get an in line forwarded message in common folders. Can
anyone confirm this. (I hope I do not get blasted for not starting a
new thread with this?)

 Ah, you never mentioned mixed content, just html. The message I tried it
 on after reading your post was from a Government agency who probably
 use OE and don't have the faintest idea what the difference is between
 text, html or brail. So yes, it was, apart from the word doc
 attachment, just html.

 Images on the other hand always seem to come through as attachments.

 Well have to have a play with this off list sometime and see just what
 we can get to happen.

JT IMHO, TB! has it wrong here

Problem is so many people on this and the other lists fought long and
hard to keep html of any description out of TB! completely. So whatever
html capability TB! has is a bonus whether wrong or right.

I'm not saying I agree one way or t'other but that's how it was.

Well, it *does* make sense not to use HTML. Given that most HTML 
rendering is done by the MS-supplied DLLs (maybe TB! has it's own, I do 
not know), I am really, really, not willing to see HTML-based e-mails...

We are getting one exploit after the other on this... last one is the 
IFRAME.

It is much prettier, and easy to read, I agree. I just wish MS had not 
completely blown HTML into a monster. In summary: HTML-based e-mail is 
not safe (and, by extension, Windows is also not safe).

Neither do I - but there's the market: a modern  competitive email client
has to cover HTML and/or Rich Text. Happyshinyclickycolorish WinXP GUI
people want a client that allows HTML so they can use backgrounds,
different fonts, smilies gg and whatnot in their mails. ;-)

And you  I - we both have to deal with an HTML mail one day. Maybe. And on

I stand corrected. You are, of course, right.
It is, then, much more important that the HTML-rendering libraries be 
limited on what they can render...

 Not too sure what you mean by this?

 I received a legal email today in html format with a word.doc
 attachment. I just forwarded it to another account and it arrived in
 exactly the same format, html and doc attachment except as you say the
 forward headers.

 Redirect works even better, it's absolutely identical in every way to
 the original minus any forward headers.

But no matter which you choose, forward or redirect, the original HTML
message will *always* be an attachment, and not inline. When you
forward a text message, you have the message in the editor (inline);
when you forward HTML, you have an attachment.

That *may* be OK for forwarding (but there should be an option to
choose attach or inline, really), but it definitely is not for
redirecting. When I redirect a message I want it to appear exactly as
it was, and not as a clumsy .eml or .msg attachment to a plain text
mail.
