I see here in the email client I am using that what you say is correctly displayed. I do see a > symbol before each line of your message when writing back though.

In the message source what is seen quoted above is exactly what the first part of the Content-Type: multipart/alternative; message received contained, just a run-on with all whitespace following every "." stripped displayed by SeaMonkey in plain-text only mode. The second part contained roughly as much HTML litter as content: <div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div> -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

It depends on what style it takes. There is a bug in Thunderbird html editor that makes style "preformatted" to do just that unless you use the proper incantation. It's a bit tricky. I am this instant on an ancient Leap install, TB 91.4.0, so my testing now would be irrelevant. -- Saludos/Cheers Carlos E. R. (using Leap 15.2 on Andor)

HTML version parses fine in K-9 mail on Android, but extra blanks are collapsed when viewing with lynx on a Real Computer. So, yeah, HTML still sucks :-) HAND :-D -- David T-G See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/email/ See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/tofu.txt

The html part of the email displays as intended. It is the plain text part that is generated wrong by Thunderbird. A bug in Thunderbird. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.5 x86_64 at Telcontar)
