#3452: Make "Re: " prepending to subject when replying optional -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: pnl | Owner: mutt-dev Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: trivial | Milestone: Component: mutt | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Quoting RFC2822:
The "Subject:" field is the most common and contains a short string identifying the topic of the message. When used in a reply, the field body MAY start with the string "Re: " (from the Latin "res", in the matter of) followed by the contents of the "Subject:" field body of the original message. If this is done, only one instance of the literal string "Re: " ought to be used since use of other strings or more than one instance can lead to undesirable consequences. Attached patch adds a boolean configuration option "reply_prefix", defaulting to on. If this flag is turned off, original subject will be used, unaltered. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3452> Mutt <http://www.mutt.org/> The Mutt mail user agent
