Hello,
I am new to s-mail (thank you! seems wonderful so far), and it is
possible I am doing something wrong. However, this behavior was
unexpected and seems to contradict the man page, so figured I'd ask.
I am trying to set quote-inject-head to "%r wrote:\n".
Whether I include or omit the "\n", and irrespective of which editor I
use (I've tried emacs, mg and vi), the "\n" never seems to get
respected. What ends up happening is the quote gets mangled, and looks
something like this:
"John Smith wrote:\n > first line of quoted message"
Note that the "\n" is printed as a string, and not obeyed as a new line.
The *default* setting (i.e. omitting setting my own quote-inject-head)
works as expected.
The man page seems to suggest that a newline character is required, but
clearly that's not working in my case. :-)
I am using OpenBSD, with nail version from the ports tree:
moon$ nail --version
nail v14.9.24, 2022-03-26 (built for OpenBSD)
Below is my ~/.mailrc. Hoping someone can provide me some advice. Please
let me know if there's anything else I can provide.
Thanks!
Ash
