Hi Milan,

So it gets converted to HTML to display plain text??? So when I reply
to this mail list/ email in plain text it goes to HTML first (and yes I
meant viewing)? So if I view the messages via mutt (or similar) it
shouldn't do it? These are cron job reports from programs like
rtkithunter and apticron (notification of available updates) I'm
reasonably sure there's little I could do to shrink them. And it's
happening on Unattended upgrade reboot required messages (they don't
contain more than a couple of sentences: Example text would be
"Unattended Upgrades has completed and out of date binaries require
system reboot." 

Apologies I assumed the list would think Debian's bugzilla, I thought I
mentioned I was on Debian Bookworm (testing) And I forgot your for all
distros, not just mine.
 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1012817 for the
evolution bug.
And https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1012227 for the
WebGtk one.

Thanks!
