Comment 48 for bug 411358

Curses! The SVN folks have foiled my plan! :-D

I currently work for a very large global corporation who can be extremely anal about standards compliance (although usually with the best intentions). So, I'm approaching the Thunderbird team here with an open mind that someone may wish to fight to the death before we compromise RFC2396 compliance.

That said I really think that fixing this in Thunderbird will be simplest and also the path of least resistance.

If we suggest a change to the TXT to HTML conversion stuff, then this would affect all platforms that Thunderbird supports. It might be better to try and target any changes purely at the GNOME integration code.

I'm really open to suggestions about this: I'm not a C++ developer and I'm still learning how TB fits together. If an actual real developer is willing to assist then I'll welcome it.
However I'll see how I get on and if successful I'll post the diffs here.
