Thanks, but it then does a very ugly indentation (no space between ">" and text, that is not readable), and doc says "To actually make use of this format's features, you'll need support in your editor. "
What support is it ?
Good quesiton… maybe mutt does not perform the preflight “encoding” and expects the script which calls the external editor to do it (I wouldn’t say this was a job for the editor itself).
Judging from your letter, mutt indeed failed to properly encode the message in the f=f style (but did add the header) -- so it would indeed seem that mutt relies on someone else to encode the message.
It is trivial to write a script for this though, if I wasn’t badly needing a break from having replied to emails for more than two hours now, I would write one for you ;)
