Subject: Incorrect encoding of flowed messages
Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2011 19:08:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fwt9508m.fsf@savara.sat.thregr.org> (raw)

In some attempts to make use of Gnus's flowed encoding (and discovering
how broken it seems to be), I discovered that `fill-flowed-encode' does
not correctly reflow long quoted lines.

Any line longer than `fill-flowed-encode-column' starting with quotes
is transformed into:

> line line ... [spc]
  line line.

killing the reflow, instead of the correct:

> line line ... [spc]
> line line.

Apparently `fill-region' is not using "> " as a paragraph prefix (it
simply uses "  "), probably due to a different `paragraph-start',
`adaptive-fill-regexp' or other variable related to filling.

Can anybody with refilling mastery look into it?

Thanks.
