Subject: Converting TOFU into something less unreasonable
Date: Sat, 29 Dec 2018 20:36:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <871s602kh7.fsf@tullinup.koldfront.dk> (raw)

  Hi,


Has anyone written a function to convert (wash?) an email with
(potentially many layers of) TOFU?


What would it do? Convert something like:

    Attribution A
    > A
    > A
    > A.signature
    > Attribution B
    >> B
    >> B
    >> B.signature
    >> Attribution C
    >>> C
    >>> C
    >>> C.signature
    >>> Attribution D
    >>>> D
    >>>> D
    >>>> D.signature

to:

    Attribution A

    >>> Attribution D
    >>>> D
    >>>> D

    >> Attribution C
    >>> C
    >>> C
    >>> C

    > Attribution B
    >> B
    >> B

    > A
    > A

Further editing would of course be needed to make sense of it, but I
think something that did that transformation automatically would make it
much easier (translating into much more likely) to do so.


  Best regards,

    Adam
