Hi Riccardo,
I shall try it (GNUMail updated) very soon.
But, in the meanwhile, reading the end of your comment, I realized
that my environment might not be as consistent it could be.
I was also guessing myself about ART: all the people following the
NEXTSPACE project (https://github.com/trunkmaster/nextspace) are using
it. Is ART deprecated ?
Also, I am not using legacy Debian GNUstep source packages, but those
forked by Sergii. I thought that as Sergii is an historic main
contributor to the GNUstep project, those sources and forks had to be
merged soon to the main project. But maybe I am wrong...
So I need to read more and to understand this consistency following
the link you gave me:
https://www.gnustep.org/resources/downloads.html
And finally, I will be back soon, maybe with an updated and more
consistent environment...

Thank you for the time you spent to assess.
Not sure this is relevant, but below is my environment:
GNUMail version is 1.4.0
Pantomime release is: 1.4.0
Both were built from their respective source got from Savannah:
http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/gnustep-nonfsf/
Ok, so you have latest!
If you want, update and test! I commited two fixes:
1) fix to interpret the body message quoted encoding. The message was
technically invalid, it delcared to be encoded, but some part of it
weren't!
I made the parser more lenient, so no exception is thrown. This needs
a
little bit of regression testing too. I played around with many
different
messages, including extra test message I have saved, no issues up to
know
2) the HTML converter (which is actually very crude, it is just a
stripper...
double checked, there are two pieces of very similar code, one for
html one
for enriched text) would just display styles. Since it doesn't
"parse" HTML
but just removes commands, <style>css info</style> would display css
info. I
hacked a very crude hack for it to strip it too. Improves
readability, but I
don't like the code, I hope I will find the time to rewrite safer.
My environment is GNUstep provided by Sergii StoIan inside NEXTSPACE
project, also built from source on Debian, aarch64 (Raspberry pi
400).
Xorg is 1.21.1
Foundation Kit is: 1.30.0
Application Kit is: 0.32.0 (ART
So you are on stable sources? but with art? or are those debian
packages? I
think cairo is default on debian (not that it shouldn't matter, but
could
explain e.g. flickering).
Current packages are base: 1.31.1 and gui 0.32.0 so it is strange you
have an
"old" base and a "current" gui...
