If there's a multipart/alternative part in plain text, then the reply can also be plain. If the original is only in HTML I think the reply is forced to HTML, which could be viewed as a bug. We do want to encourage the use of plain text after all :-) I'd suggest Bugzilla for this. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
