   Here is a test using "QUOTEMARGIN 72" and the "INVALIDATE" (for SEEN-BY,   
   TEARLINE, and ORIGIN) config options in golded.conf on Linux, using the   
   internal editor. For some time, it seems these options are not doing what they   
   are supposed to be doing.   
      
   1) In the above quoted text of Tommi, the first line in the paragraph is 76   
   characters long (plus a possible space making it 77), and the second line in   
   the paragraph is 77 characters long (plus a possible space making it 78   
   characters).   
      
    - I guess my expectation would be that it would be 72 characters, unless   
   we're allowing 5 more characters due to the quote prefix, and the possible   
   space at the end doesn't count?   
      
   2) "---" so far is not changed to "-+-" as specified in the "INVALIDATE"   
   option.   
      " * " so far is not changed to " + " as specified in the "INVALIDATE"   
   option.   
      
   SEEN-BY wasn't quoted here, but you get the point.   
      
   If it is indeed changed upon saving of this message, then #2 may just only   
   work while using the internal editor, as it has never worked for me while   
   using an external editor (something I assume would be done while quotes are   
   being re-wrapped and reformatting is being done).   
      
   Are either of these actually working correctly for anyone on Linux, using the   
   latest version?   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
