Bugzilla fluent members who can verify and report this SM 2.0 bug would 
be appreciated. Thanks.


In what mode? News? Mail? HTML or plain text, fixed width font?

I don't see this looking quickly, but details are needed, since all of those 
things might change the result.

The bug occurs while replying to an e-mail in plain text mode. Have seen it many 
times on a line where there is a string of multiple spaces which then gets 
converted to just ONE space in the quoted text.

I have just send a posting to de.test with this body:
Testcase mit mehreren Spaces.

Replying to this posting i selected this line and used Rewrap. The
multiple spaces were concentrated to one single space. SM 2.1, current
trunk.

I know meanwhile, that MIDs are not common in this NG, but nevertheless,
those who wish can find it. *fg*

That's terrible, the spaces are preserved perfectly, but the text is all 
translated into German.

;-) Couldn't resist.

Sigh, doesn't look like SM can do news: URLs, either. Telnet is my friend, as is 
the NNTP protocol hand typed. Viewing that article could be hard for people with 
just SM.

This form is dangerous. Each time one clicks on a link like this a new
newsserver with the name 'news' appears in the prefs.js. Some people had
have a lot of them. :)

Hm, just want to rewrap the next lines, but the option is grayed out in
my SM 2.1. This time, not normally. Because i am too lazy do correct the
lines manually, there will be no rewrap.

Well, there is http://messageidfinder.mozdev.org/. Not compatible with
SM2 but one of the two add-ons i simply refuse to miss. Therefore i have
hacked it.
