Which version of Outlook is this?

16.16.12 (190715) on a Mac

I haven't seen any e-mails from customers or colleagues suggesting that they have problems with format=flowed. In fact, it sounds to me more like something is ignoring format=flowed and adding linebreaks, which format=flowed should avoid.

I think this is exactly correct. Outlook isn’t implementing format=flowed in displaying emails that I send to my colleagues, and so the result is that Outlook is adding hard line breaks and thereby mangling my emails. And the problem seems to compound after a series of replies.

One solution would be to allow Mailmate users to disable format=flowed (i.e., to not include it in the content-type header). That would prevent Mailmate generated emails from getting mangled by mail clients that don’t implement format=flowed.

Here’s another solution I’ve seen proposed:
