3 RfC 3676 defining format=flowed
4 ===============================
6 This RfC specifies quote chars to be '>' and due to space-stuffing lines
7 there're no spaces withing the quote prefix of a line allowed.
8 Currently, the implementation does:
10 - Change all quote characters by force to '>'. This is plain wrong in
11 some cases where a character from $quote_regexp (even with the default
12 setting) may appear at the beginning of a line but actually doesn't
13 represent a quoted line. For example, someone may quote parts of
14 muttng configs with comments. However, _if_ this _is_ a quoted line
15 using e.g. '#' as $indent_string, we need to change the '#' prefix to
18 - Compress the complete quote, i.e. remove any spaces within the
19 complete quote prefix of a line. This, too, is just plain wrong. For
20 example, some people may have $indent_string set to '> ' and this gets
21 quoted several times to something like '>> >>'. However this
22 semanticly has a quote level of 3 as the second poster space-stuffed
23 that line. IMHO it's more common that people use spaces in
24 $indent_string (which the implementation removes right now) than
25 people space-stuffing lines which start '>' to ' >' when composing new
