Assuming that the first message in the list contained a cut-line, the remaining messages would all shrink, and not be quotable since they were below the first recognized cut line. -- Dwight A.

Hello Dwight, On Mon, 6 Jun 2011 18:34:13 -0500 (your time) you said: > the current behavior is the proper one. [...] I never questioned whether the current behaviour was the 'proper behaviour', or not, Dwight - whatever 'proper behaviour' means; 'preferred behaviour' might be more accurate, but then it is clearly preferred by some, and not all. Anyhow, I was just after a solution to a problem that I face replying on other message lists where the flamin' list software appends list information to the end of the message but precedes it with a cut-line. -- Si #28967.

If there is a message from someone who doesn't trim, or several people who don't trim, if one trimmed at the first cut mark, most of the message would be turn too small and light to read and would get ignored by most readers, or at least by me, because I would assume I had reached the end of the message. If trimming at the first cut mark for replying occurred what is presumably part of the message would end up disappeared. If there are cut marks in the middle of material I want to include in my reply, I want it to stay, and when I want a message trimmed, beyond the sender's actual signature at the end of the message, I want to trim it myself. -- Dwight A.

Re: Multiple signature delimiters
Hello, Perhaps I am not totally going bonkers, but rather slightly confused. Looks like TB! adds a space to all sig delimiters that follow the first occurrence... if the sigs are created in TB! And TB! still recognises the delimiters that follow and displays them as signatures. So three sigs would be: --·¶ Nomen ·--·¶ Nomen ·--·¶ Nomen · represents a space So TB! is actually recognising the first delimiter and hobbling the rest but still displaying them...but only when created in TB!. But then TB! obviously doesn't modify anything that lands in your inbox with sigs composed in various email clients. In such a case a message then might look like this: --·¶ Nomen --·¶ Nomen --·¶ Nomen And then TB! of course doesn't modify anything, but cuts at the last signature delimiter..as I thought. So, I'm not crazy, and I would therefore still like to know if anyone can suggest any creative way to deal with this in a reply template. I'm not that bright when it comes to those things, but basically, if the first cut-line has to somehow have precedence over subsequent ones. Sorry. I hope some kind soul can put me out of my misery. It's just a really annoying having to trim long sigs and quotes out of replies. -- Si #20721. Ore Den Iww Gosh? ¶ Auxiliary Information: • The Bat!

I have been sending myself test emails with multiple signatures from account to account in TB! and all the sigs are recognised as sigs by TB!, changing to default green. Replying to them does in fact remove all occurrences of the signatures, not just one. So that is confusing. I can only assume that my and others' delimiters are being modified somehow when the other list information is being appended to replies. If this is the case, is there a way to deal with this using regular expressions? -- Si # 5216. We Gored Snow Hi? ¶ Auxiliary Information: • The Bat!

Multiple signature delimiters
Hello TBUDL, This is a puzzler (for me at least): If you have more than one signature delimiter - or cut-line if you like - in a message, TB! currently treats the last occurrence as the delimiter, and ignores any cut-lines before it, so unwanted signatures can still appear in the message body when you reply to a message. How can I get TB! to cut at the first occurrence of a delimiter rather than the last? This is proving a pain on message lists list information is appended to the message and preceded by a wretched cut-line, superseding your own sig. Inevitably, when you then reply the reply contains not just the message but the message authors signature as well, which also has to be trimmed. So I'd like to be able to get TB! to cut at the first occurrence of the delimiter for some lists instead. Is this possible? Thanks. -- Si #15167. Who Owe Dins Erg? ¶ Auxiliary Information: • The Bat!
