Yep, already there.

Also, there is something FUBAR on how the Factory list causes reply-quoting and indentation to behave.

The list manager does not alter the message. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (14.9°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Other than append the two lines at the end.

I think he refers to Thunderbird. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

So he meant to say: "there is something FUBAR on how Thunderbird causes ..." ?

Apparently it happens with list mail :-) Later we learnt that it happens with list emails posted by Patrick. I'm suspecting his ISP, because it is not the first time he has issues with email; and if it turns out that he is reusing the same Thunderbird config from other systems, then there is a high probability of there being something wrong with that inherited config. I would try with a brand new user, and create the Th profile from scratch. if that worked, then I would try the old user with a new TH profile. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I can reply to your message just fine Per.

I've no doubt missed exactly what this issue is about, I just wanted to say that the list manager only appends two lines at the end, otherwise it does not alter the message. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (10.4°C) http://www.cloudsuisse.com/ - your owncloud, hosted in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Also, there is something FUBAR on how the Factory list causes reply-quoting and indentation to behave. I just tried to nicely trim by selecting your quote and hit reply and it put the whole damn message in the reply (including your signature) -- that's screwed up. It didn't even include my signature.

Progress.... (this is with the current Leap 42.3 Tbird)

appears most of your "progress" relates to choices *you* make. file bug reports against actions you feel are wrong rather than ranting here. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

===== Exact Reply Above ============

Patrick,

This appears to be unique to replying to your posts. I select your text, and hit replay, and the selection is ignore by Tbird. Reply works correctly to all others. I also note your reply is the only one that results in:

* David C. Rankin [04-13-18 12:04]: ^ the asterisks as the first character of the reply. Who knows.

local setting in my ~/.muttrc. aligns attribute to quoted text. should not affect your client. have never had anyone else question or comment.

To all - none was a rant -- perhaps a bit colorful in the descriptions...

maybe quite a bit! and if not a rant, cited problems still need bug reports. unless they are rants. fwiw, I have noticed no problems replying on the factory list. but I do not use tb. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
