It works for my purposes and doesn't give much to think about while writing, but thanks for the suggestion. Cheers, -- José María (Chema) Mateos || https://rinzewind.org/

Now I'm curious: I tried to get flowed messages working for me but in the end I gave up because I couldn't compose indented blocks as I like, so I went back to fixed width format. Could you provide an example of such an indented block? What's the effect of delsp? It basically removes a single trailing space from each f=f line. Example: “This is ” “one line.” Becomes: “This isone line.” However: “This is ” “one line.” Becomes: “This is one line.” It is handy primarily for two reasons: · Some languages do not use spaces. · Mixing flowed and non-flowed lines in a single message body can be convenient. For the latter, consider the following: “https://www.whydoeseveryurl.com/in.2019?seem=to=tracking=%40%33%54%57 ” “%38%55%58%68%27%45%71%66%48%47%57%43%69%68%58%30%67%74%70%68%45%58%26%29%29”

I was originally hesitant to clobber whatever value for Content-Type that mutt created on its own. However, the following seems to sidestep such concerns: set content_type = "$content_type; delsp=yes" Hopefully this message body flowed well for you. ;)
