Re: [Evolution] Mail forwarding

[James Finnall <James Finnall net>]

The option to not show again does not function in the normal manner. 
When I went to forward something it was back to where it was before.  I
checked the options and the box was cleared again.  So checking the box
not to show again does not remember what I selected, it actually
CHANGES what I selected for the next message because it modifies the
config and does not display again forcing plain text on all future
messages.

So I am forced to respond to the dialog every time I reply or forward
an html message.  Not what I desire to do.  I do not want it to ask me
every time but it should NOT change my config.

James

        Hi,
that is correct behavior. When you convert the HTML message to the
Plain Text, then many things are removed from the message. Turning such
modified message from Plain Text to the HTML doesn't magically recover
the dropped formatting and such.

As users are asked whether they really want to lose formatting before
the convert from HTML to Plain Text is done and you didn't indicate
you've been asked for it, I support you answered once and checked "Do
not show again" in that dialog. Verify in Edit->Preferences->Composer
Preferences->Confirmations tab that the option "Before composer format
changes from HTML to Plain Text" is checked.
        Bye,
        Milan
