   In principle it would be better, like with any newsreader that doesn't support   
   f=f, so that stuffed spaces are not displayed. Other than that, there should   
   be no difference.   
      
   In HotdogEd it doesn't really matter, as it doesn't display consecutive spaces   
   e.g. used for indentation (you can't view ASCII art properly unless you select   
   "View raw article").

   Yes, but it does the same with both flowed off and on (format=flowed and   
   format=fixed look almost identical on readers that don't support f=f). If you   
   use it in horizontal view, or on a larger screen like a tablet, it looks   
   better.   
      
    NB> Both of these look fine on Thunderbird (with flowed=on), as well as

   I think we had seen that tin does support f=f, at least it removed stuffed   
   spaces. Does it wrap paragraphs at more than 72 chars, or are they adjusted to   
   the screen width?   
      
   Also, what about slrn?   
      
    NB> Maybe tin and slrn can deal with incoming format=flowed, but just   
    NB> don't post that way..?   
      
   It may be that they send paragraphs as long lines, instead of breaking them   
   into several lines with soft-wrapping trailing spaces as in format=flowed.   
   Smapi/JamNNTPd properly handles both formats when posting to the messagebase.   
      
    NB> So is it a HotdogEd problem that you're looking to come up with a work   
    NB> around for, specifically?   
      
   No, it may be good for other newsreaders too. If I'm not mistaken,   
   Smapi/JamNNTPd would work like other NNTP servers do.
