You may not be aware, but Composer (the HTML composition app in the

If it's really important to you to get clean, W3C-compliant code, you
should compose it elsewhere and copy/paste it into the SM message
(Insert... HTML). But for most practical purposes, it's probably more
trouble than it's worth.


Whether SeaMonkey's HTML component is hopelessly borked is not my
problem. If we assume that Thunderbird does not exhibit this behaviour
when sending mail to Outlook, ....

I'm not sure anyone has verified the behavior on multiple SM platforms even, let alone tried T-Bird. The thread pretty much went blame-game from day 1.

I can't test/verify it of course, I don't have Word or Outlook. The "paste without formatting" suggestion seemed to be the best answer.

I would have thought the "MS Word writes horrible code" issue was well known enough ten years ago, that people didn't even try to paste it into another program anymore.
