For some time I'm using "elinks -dump-color-mode 1" to display HTML mails in Mutt's pager, along with allow_ansi=yes.When I respond to a colored HTML mail, everything work as expected.
Stripping ANSI sequences in autoview rendering for replies was added as a feature in Mutt 1.14.0.
However, when I inline forward such a mail, all ANSI escape sequences are kept and shown in the body. I get a quoted text full of "^[[0;37m" kind of things. Could I avoid that using right configuration or is it a bug I should report?
You could try turning off $forward_decode, but I don't think that's the behavior you want. :-) (It forwards the raw email as inline text).
At the point the autoview is invoked, I don't think there is currently a way to tell that it will be used for forward-content, as opposed to rendering in the pager.
However, I should be able to add a new flag and strip the sequences for an inline forward too. I'll add that to my TODO list, but feel free to file a bug if you'd like to track progress or help test.
