   Hi Nicholas,   
      
   On 2024-02-24 07:58:28, you wrote to Carlos Navarro:   
      
    NB>>>>> How did my original reply to Carlos look on your end?   
      
    JH>>>> I think this is the message you're referring to:

     NB>>> Yes, that's the one.. along with most of the others I wrote from   
     NB>>> Thunderbird. It seems Thunderbird adds non-breaking spaces (or   
     NB>>>   in html) anywhere there's two or more concurrent spaces next   
     NB>>> to each other.   
      
   They are here on these quotes, but on none of the others...?   
      
    CN>> 1. An extra space in inserted in quoted lines that begin with one or   
    CN>> more spaces.   
      
    CN>> 2. If using format=flowed (def_flowed or user/flowed=on in   
    CN>> Smapi/JamNNTPd), when there are two or more consecutive spaces in the   
    CN>> quoted text, all but one are replaced by non-breaking spaces (UTF-8:   
    CN>> 0xC2 0xA0 / LATIN-1: 0xA0) when posted to the NNTP server.   
      
    CN>> As FTN-style quotes are usually prefixed by a space, another one is   
    CN>> inserted and then the second one is converted to a NBSP.   
      
    CN>> If you manually remove the extra spaces in the quotes before sending   
    CN>> the reply, no NBSPs are posted. (I'm doing it in this reply.)   
      
    NB> I've manually removed all but one space in the quotes above to see if this   
    NB> indeed works on my end as well.   
      
    NB> *shakes fist at Thunderbird*   
      
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
