Thank you for your feedback.
My EXMH version is 2.8.0. I am not sure I understand how you reply, and what shortcut <Control-q> corresponds to (I don't seem to have it on my version). Do you first choose a plain reply to sender, then in the editor for the reply use this shortcut? It may correspond to the "Quote" menu I have, which leaves me two options (without shortcuts): Quote and Quote MIME. Neither seems to do what I want. Thank you for any clarifications. Best, Marc NB: in general if readers on this list have customized variants of scripts/commands for replying/quoting, and are willing to share, I'd be most interested. NB: for fun I just asked ChatGPT about this, and although its solution doesn't work (maybe version dependent) it did understand about exmh etc. Fun times. >>> "Andy Bradford" said: >> Thus said Marc Baaden on Fri, 09 Dec 2022 08:28:23 +0100: >> >> > For some messages, when I reply to the sender quoted, I get an >> > unreadable quote in base64, although the initial message contained >> > plain text.
