Description : display filter for RFC822 messages
This program is a filter which shall improve the readability for messages
(email and posts) by *hiding* some annoying parts, e.g. mailing list footers,
signatures and TOFU as well as squeezing sequences of blank lines or
punctuation.
TOFU is an acronym that stands for "Text oben, Fullquote unten" (german
language) which means the style of sadly so many people that just leave all
the quotes in a reply and add some own lines above. This acronym is what gave
the script it's name - TOFU Protection.
I personally like that script and guess it will be usefulfore more than
just for usage with mutt (in fact, it currently can even be used from
procmail to bounce some messages). And I guess it might be possible to
integrate it into other mailers that have a feature like mutt's
display_filter (Gnus appears in my mind). Though I don't need it I
would need help to integrate it there, and elsewhere wanted.
Have fun,
Alfie
