Do you have a link to a bugreport or could say in short TF> words what the problem was about? (snip) Can't seem to find this in bugtracker and I'm SURE it was there last year. Anyway, here's my original message: |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| A major problem with 2.x was that it wouldn't render Outlook email properly. It often concatenates words. Very annoying, especially when one wants to reply/forward the message. The bug was reported long ago but was never fixed. Does 3.0 fix this? |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Here's a reply from Jonathan Angliss: No, but the problem is a mixed issue. The cause is Outlook wrapping HTML lines, but not showing any kind of spacing between the two words. Nicely formatted email based HTML, would look like this: this is a new = line The = would tell TB to leave the space there (or they could use %20 or ), and would nicely put a break in it. However, outlook does it like this: this is a new line The trailing space doesn't exist, so when TB unwraps it, it has no idea that they aren't two separate words. Of course, it could do it a different way, and treat a new line as a white space like most programs do. But then, what do you do with the additional space that gets put in there if somebody uses the top format? ;) Take a look at the HTML formatted email that TB sends out, it inserts the =, there are a few others do as well, I believe evolution does too. |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| jon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.60.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
