First, to see what I mean just look at this bugreport via webinterface and notice how the lines in the Package information-table below starting with 1(!) whitespace followed by "OR" appear to have 2 whitespaces. Compare this with the output of your mailclient which should just show 1 whitespace.

Ok; this can probably be changed for format=flowed, though
reportbug-ng probably shouldn't bother to send messages with
format=flowed.

This it not a rng specific issue, it's icedove which sets format=flowed by default when composing mails in plaintext mode, there is nothing rng can do about it, since i just call icedove with a mailto:URL.

I don't know if it is a proper fix to just strip a whitespace on double spaces on the beginning of the line when format=flowed is detected. I'm not a perl-guru, but I guess there is some lib which can correctly format every freakin' mailformat to proper html.


Cheers,

Bastian

PS: How is my SOAP support going, I just had to fix an issue with html parsing again today :)
