@item @emph{How can I apply format=flowed to my outgoing messages, enabling
|
||||||
|
receiving clients that support this feature to reflow my paragraphs?}
|
||||||
|
Plain text emails with @t{Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed} can
|
||||||
|
be reflowed (i.e. line endings removed, paragraphs refilled) by
|
||||||
|
receiving clients that support this standard. Clients that don't support
|
||||||
|
this, show them as is, which means this feature is truly non-invasive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Here's an explanatory blog post which also shows why this is a desirable
|
||||||
|
feature: @url{https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/gmail-plain-text} (if you
|
||||||
|
don't have it, your mails mostly look quite bad especially on mobile
|
||||||
|
devices) and here's the RFC with all the details:
|
||||||
|
@url{http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2646.txt}.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To add this to outgoing mu4e emails, activate @t{use-hard-newlines} and
|
||||||
|
use only @t{M-q} or @t{fill-paragraph} for your paragraphs, Emacs will
|
||||||
|
indicate intra-paragraph breaks with soft newlines and inter-paragraph
|
||||||
|
breaks with hard newlines. When the Gnus code sees these on outgoing
|
||||||
|
emails, it will automatically set @t{format=flowed}.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To enable this, you can use something like this in your init.el:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@lisp
|
||||||
|
;; tip submitted by mu4e user cpbotha
|
||||||
|
(add-hook 'mu4e-compose-mode-hook
|
||||||
|
"Outgoing mails get format=flowed."
|
||||||
|
(defun cpb-compose-setup ()
|
||||||
|
(use-hard-newlines t 'guess)))
