[PATCH] to improve the rendering of format=flowed quoted text
Attached is a patch for mutt-1.4i to improve the rendering of
format=flowed quoted text by space-stuffing all quoted lines. This
makes the quoting of format=flowed text more consistent with the
quoting style traditionally used for format=fixed text and makes the
quoted text recognizable by the default 'quote_regexp'. This
behavior is controlled by a new boolean option, 'stuff_all_quoted'.
When unset (the default), mutt's behavior is the same as without the
patch.
