Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 196881

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Trevor Nuridin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

When sending an email via MAPI (MAPISendMail) the body text is interpreted
without respect to the fact MAPI 'body of messages' are plain text. If the
client is using HTML, then a <PRE> </PRE> bracket should be wrapped around the
text so it is properly presented as plain text within the HTML message.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send plaintext body via MAPI
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
the compose window show the body, but incorrectly formatted (\n's missing etc)


Expected Results:  
interpret MAPI bodies as plain text ?
