User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Build Identifier: version 1.0.2 (20050317) I want to replace Outlook / Outlook Express with Mozilla Thunderbird. Most of our User use the Outlook feature Reply all, where the Mail client adds the following information in the Mail body. Example: ----- Original Message ----- From: Das Team von Microsoft Outlook Express To: Neuer Outlook Express-Benutzer Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 9:53 AM Subject: Willkommen In Thunderbird there is only the option to insert something like this: "author" wrote the following on "date": By using the following configuration in user.js: user_pref("mailnews.reply_header_type", 3); // If you set 3 for the pref above then you may set the following prefs. user_pref("mailnews.reply_header_authorwrote", "%s wrote the following"); user_pref("mailnews.reply_header_ondate", "on %s"); user_pref("mailnews.reply_header_separator", " "); user_pref("mailnews.reply_header_colon", ":"); // The end result will be [authorwrote][separator][ondate][colon] In order to replace Outlook we need the extra informations in the Mail Body, because in long Mail-Threads user replace and add Receipient without qouting it into the messages. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a email 2. Klick reply all Actual Results: The reply looked the following: AfterJobParty wrote the following on 15.11.2004 20:34: > Der Inhalt dieser Mail in der Übersicht: > > 1.

AfterJobParty präsentiert: Die Party der Nachtschwärmer am Freitag, 19. November in den Rheinterrassen, Köln-Deutz 2. Die AfterJobParty "Christmas Special" am Donnerstag, 09. Dezember in der Flora, präsentiert von Radio Köln 107,1 As I see in the Thunderbird source code there are 4 ways to build the Information in the mail body : switch (replyHeaderType) { case 0: // No reply header at all header=PR_FALSE; headerDate=PR_FALSE; break; case 2: // Insert both the original author and date in the reply header (date followed by author) case 3: // Insert both the original author and date in the reply header (author followed by date) header=PR_TRUE; headerDate=PR_TRUE; break; case 4: // XXX implement user specified header case 1: // Default is to only view the author. We will reconsider this decision when bug 75377 is fixed. default: header=PR_TRUE; headerDate=PR_FALSE; break; } I think Case 4 might be the place to implement this issue, but this might be a feature which improves the ability to replace Outlook and might be done as case 5.
