Subject: rendering and generating text/markdown parts
Date: Fri, 11 Aug 2017 00:41:52 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87y3qqpvfz.fsf@fifthhorseman.net> (raw)
Using `Content-Type: text/markdown`
-----------------------------------
[Over on LWN, some discussion came up about rendering and generating
text/markdown variants of e-mails](https://lwn.net/Articles/730277/)
This is similar to (but maybe simpler than) [a proposal that was
discussed on the alot bug tracker earlier this
year](https://github.com/pazz/alot/issues/1051).
I thought i'd drop this mail as a marker for the start of a longer
discussion if anyone wants to try to take it further.
Next Steps
----------
I think this mail is (hopefully) actually composed correctly as
text/markdown.
Does anyone's MUA render it properly? Anyone want to post screenshots
or other renderings?
Anyone have suggestions about message composition in markdown?
