Hi all!
When opening a multipart/alternative message, as default balsa displays
(if available) a text/html part (which afaik is the correct behaviour
according to the rfc's). As I really dislike html mails, I wrote a small
patch (against the balsa2 cvs, see below) which adds an option to force
displaying the plain part instead.
If the option is checked, balsa looks for both text/html and text/plain
parts. If a plain part is available, it will be displayed. Otherwise,
either the html (if available; e.g. Nutscrape and Outlook may be
configured to send no plain part) or the complete part (for broken mua's
which send rtf/doc/...) will be displayed.
Mails which are completely html are not affected.
Any comments?
Cheers, Albrecht.
Some details about the patch:
* balsa/src/balsa-app.h: add a new gboolean config variable
* balsa/src/balsa-message.c: modify scanning of multipart/alternative
messages
* balsa/src/pref-manager.c: add a check button in Mail Options->Incoming
* balsa/src/save-restore.c: save & restore the config variable
