That is correct. Greetings from Bangkok. I can't see any relation to the issue reported in #1217. I just used another angle that you, the user's view instead of the developer's. But from what you wrote there, I guess that your problem with delays creating a reply is the bad habit to copy the full correspondence with each single message which has ever been sent in this thread, unabridged with all the images etc. I consider this a very unpolite habit. Imagine you are sitting together in a conference, and each person, after delivering her or his contribution, repeats all those contributions which the others have made before, including all the grammatical errors and eh and ahm and what have you. It does not matter what you think, you have an IT view and I am in the service industry. We have to quote the whole email thread and add our reply at the top. If someone starts to cut something out, you will immediately be accused of trying to hide something: "Why did you cut my instruction of 2 February?". Difference industries have different norms. You'll just have to believe me. One should only copy what is needed to understand which part of the received message one is replying to. Then you will have no delays before you can start writing. I know it wouldn't cause a delay if I worked your way. However, the software is there to support the work and not the other way around. Besides, TB is the only MUA I know with this problem. Coming back to your remark that this problem is not related to your bug, let's discuss this when the bug is fixed. I think the problem I am describing is a result of the bug.

Hello everybody, on Dienstag, 12. Mai 2020 at 03:11 Thomas Fernandez wrote re Delay when creating new message You'll just have to believe me. Then stay away, do it your own way, but stop complaining that the reforming of several megabytes of HTML code does take time. What you complain about, is all of your own making. Bye bye.

Yeah... 1. https://www.ritlabs.com/en/forums/forum6/topic10194/ 2. https://www.ritlabs.com/en/auth-forums/forum6/topic14708/ 3. https://www.ritlabs.com/en/auth-forums/forum6/topic12796/ 4. https://www.ritlabs.com/en/auth-forums/forum6/topic12876/ The list goes on. I suspect that after Maxim & Andrei are done with the new DevExpress widgets, we *might* see some improvements on this front. -- Regards, A 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I do reply — as in this case — only with quoting those pieces of text which are relevant to understand what I am replying to. Either by marking that piece of text, or cutting out everything not needed; this concerns certainly images including company logos. > I do believe that there is something in the HTML code that > caused the TB HTML editor to choke but I have not reported it because > I cannot put my finger on it.

I don't know enough about HTML to confirm about these nested tables, but it doesn't sound right and may well be the reason for the editor slowing down. It uses too much CPU time and RAM when the mails get longer. It also makes sense that it gets better again when I reply with the plaintext editor once - the tables get deleted. -- Cheers, Thomas.
