I can speak for emacs' post mode, albeit from hazy memory since it's been far
too long since I've worked on it.
- Syntax highlighting, i.e. color, bold, and/or italics for different levels of
quoting and headers.
- Quick commands for handling quoted and doubly quoted text (i.e. deleting,
dequoting, requoting, rewrapping).
- Signature selection doodads
- (Unportable) Emboldening and underlining.
- A reminder to actually attach that file you said you were going to attach.
My apologies to the other post developers if I've forgotten anything (alias
expansion?). There's more in it than I personally use on a regular basis.
