She-who-must-be-obeyed has just become the club secretary and sends mail to the committee most of whom are winders users and here starts the saga:
kmail which she used (and is arguably the nicest GUI mailer) can't be configured to not send plain AND html mail. It then wraps every quoted line in <p> </p> tags which the winders mailers render as 2 lines [bug reports confirm this] As a result after a few back-n-forth the mail consists of islands of text in a sea of blank lines evolution wont display pictures inline automatically. Easy to click <display inline> for one but get a blast with 20 small pictures and it is really irritating. [kmail:display inline [] click] using bogofilter is mindlessly complex. After 1/2 day googling I'm no nearer a working solution [kmail: use bogofilter [] click] evolution seems anally-fixated on the keyring. There is only me and her. I dont want and dont need any passwords. [kmail: use wallet? No! Are you sure that you want to be so stupid? Yes! Done!] thunderbird: respond to slug digest selecting 2nd last posting. First n hundred lines are included, sorry not the article you selected. Much cut and paste if you want to be relevant. I did not find out how to display inline but I read it can be done. Any suggestions or do I just bite the bullet with kmail and tough to the committee?
