I've asked here before about how to turn off format=flowed. (Eudora
setting 260: <x-eudora-setting:260> These settings control when Eudora will
interpret or generate format=flowed.)) Set to 1 to turn off
completely.) And I have done.
However (Eudora 5.2.0, paid) it doesn't seem to be interested. When I
received stuff that's format=flowed, it still replies that way, even though
I'd rather have the normal > reply style.
The problem is that when I script stuff (like signing my name, changing
personality) for messages, the script
set msjcontent to field "" of message 0 --here is where the format=flowed
gets lost
set msjcontent to (msjcontent & return & mysignature) as string
loses all the format=flowed stuff, meaning that there's no quoting in the
message, so you can't see who said what.
I've delved into the Eudora dictionary but there's nothing there about what
might be the clue. I'm wondering if there's something in the message
headers of the html header that indicates format=flowed; if so I could
remove it before replying, I guess. Looking at a recent message, the only
headers beyond the RFC ones were
<x-html><!x-stuff-for-pete base=\"\" src=\"\" id=\"0\"
charset=\"\"><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN\">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"Content-Type\" CONTENT=\"text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\">
<META NAME=\"Generator\" CONTENT=\"MS Exchange Server version 5.5.2653.12\">
<TITLE>RE: Trek to Dartmoor...? - can't really</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
but when I do "show all headers of message 0 to true" and "reply message 0"
this too gets put into a format=flowed form.
Could I also say at this point that I don't like format=flowed? Thanks.

PS No, JD, I'm not going to upgrade to 5.2.1, because Qualcomm, unlike
almost every other company, thinks I should pay ## for a thousandth-point
upgrade if it comes out more than a year after the previous one. Unless
I've misunderstood the licensing requirement.
