And once > I looked closer, I just went "aiieee, it wasn't all the email client" ;) I got fed up of telling people to reconfigure their MUAs a long time ago and ended up with this in my .procmailrc :0fw | /usr/bin/perl -pe 's/^(Content-Type: .*)format=flowed/\1format=flawed/' It doesn't solve all the worlds problems, but it least makes that crap readable in _my_ MUA. Sadly, if it's a patch that I have to apply then chances are I'll have to get them to resend it with something else anyway, as it's inevitably buggered in some other way because thunderbird really is that dire. I'm convinced there's some contest to see who can make the worst graphical mail client for Linux. I'm not sure what the prize is, or who's winning, but the entries so far are horrific.
