There are various desirable behaviors w.r.t invisible text, and you
can't have them all at the same time. I.e. the above "bug" is
a conscious decision.
It's been with us for a while now and hasn't caused any real bug report
yet (other than reports such as this one, that is; which complain on
principle rather than because of some real problem introduced by this
behavior). So I'd rather leave it as is.
Now as for the Pmail-specific part of your bug-report, I can't help you
right now. Is this different from Rmail's behavior?
Stefan
