MUA's should not attempt to remove these quotes *unless* they know there are using mboxrd. So, I don't see any problem with the current behavior. Note: the F encoding may be necessary because mboxo generation corrupts the mail body (and it is done by the sender just in case the recipient uses mboxo, in order to avoid a corruption at this side). But there is no corruption with mboxrd. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
