No worries. I was hoping you were right because it would be a nice
solution. I've been using fmt in vim, but I'll have to give par a try.
It looks like it can deal with more types of formatting issues that fmt.
But to get back to the original question -- how can you take apart and
put back together a message without line breaks (those messages that
show up with a + at the end of the line)? It seems like a
display_filter would be the solution, except that you probably only want
the filter applied to messsages with this condition. Is there a way to
map / bind a key such that wil will redisplay the current message, but
this time pass it through a display_filter first?
Seems like this could help with a variety of broken-mailer issues like
the \224 issue, the long line issue and others I can't think of. You'd
just use bind a different filter for different problems.
Chris
