Hi, * Soren Stoutner <so...@debian.org> [2025-02-28 10:53]:
Format=flowed is being entirely driven by the belief that “We really want the sending MUA to wrap text, but it creates horrible problems, so here is a cludge to work around it.”I believe the idea is more like "We want the receiving MUA to do the line wrapping, but we do not want to break MUAs which cannot do it (yet)."
Only a webmail provider can bitch about the complexity of text wrapping and then proceed to recommend HTML, which is even more complex to render and even more difficult to sanitize from malicious JavaScript. I guess life is much simpler if you can rely on browser developers to do the heavy lifting for you.https://www.fastmail.com/blog/format-flowed/
