Description Emre Erenoglu 2018-03-19 04:36:36 UTC
I'm using Evolution 26.5 with EWS account (Office 365). I'm using Outlook style, inline forwards, etc. When I reply or forward a message, this is what happens:

=============QUOTE=============
cursor

-------- Forwarded Message --------

Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2018 08:23:56 +0400
Subject: abcd
Cc: abcd
To: abcd
From: Emre <emre@emre>
TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT

=============/QUOTE============

Problems:
1) There's an empty line between ---Forwarded Message--- line and Date header.
2) There's no empty line between From: and the forwarded/replied message body TEXT. This reduces readability for the people who receive my email.
3) The order of headers in replied/forwarded message is wrong. The correct order shall be
   From: 
   Date:  (outlook calls this "Sent:" by the way)
   To:
   Cc:
   Subject:
   Importance:

to match how Outlook does things.

Cannot reproduce in 3.26.5 on a normal (non EWS) account. No empty lines are inserted at the top, using "Message > Forward As > Inline".

Cannot reproduce in 3.26.5 on a normal (non EWS) account. I have an empty line in plain text mode.
Comment 2 Emre Erenoglu 2018-03-19 11:25:27 UTC
Interesting. My composer preferences, mentioning only enabled ones:
  Format Messages in HTML
  Encode Filenames in Outlook/Gmail way
  Send mesages through Outbox (send immediately)
  Number of Characters for word wrapping: 71
  Character Encoding: UTF8
  Reply Style: Outlook Style Inline
  Forward Style: Inline
  Keep  signature above the original message
  Include Signature in new messages only
  Wrap  Quoted text in replies

Thanks for a bug report. It does that only when composing in HTML format. It works fine in Plain text. This is related to bug #777373, where I might miss something.
Comment 4 Milan Crha 2018-03-21 17:00:20 UTC
There is much more fun here. When using Plain Text mode, the headers are correct without any code change, but wrong in HTML mode. When I partially revert the change from the other bug I get Plain Text mode broken, but HTML code correct.
