  • Thunderbird: have "send both types" always checked

    From Balaco ocalaB@21:1/5 to All on Mon Oct 18 23:25:35 2021
    This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
    Hello,

    when i compose HTML messages, there is a menu item *Options > Deliver
    method > Both formats*.

    The other options in the submenu *Deliver format *are:

    - automatic select
    - no formatting
    - HTML formatting

    I would like to have the "Both formats" option always checked, in all
    the messages i compose as HTML, in all accounts i have. Do you know how?

    I know the global setting *Edit > Preferences > Edit (tab) > General
    (subtab) > Sending format (button) > check box "Send messages with text
    without formatting, if possible"*. This checkbox is marked.

    Below it, there is a dropdown menu with the title *"When sending HTML
    messages, and if a destination is not defined to receive this
    format:"*,  with these options:

    - ask what is the preferred format
    - only send without format
    - only send HTML
    - send a message not formatted together (chosen option)

    But with these settings, i still always see the option to send both
    formats unchecked in all compose windows. The chosen option is
    "automatic choice" - which i do *not* want.

    Do you know how to do this? Maybe one of those misterious "about:config" settings...

    And "we" take the opportunity to point out the existence of the
    newsgroup alt.comp.software.thunderbird, which unlike forums, mailing
    lists, etc., is not under the _control_ of anybody (including mozilla).

    They put two and two together and make a dozen, provided they take off their socks to help them count that far. (From "Walking the Dog", by "Smilodon".)

    If you want to always send in both plain text and html, you should
    *uncheck* the option to "Send messages as plain text if possible",
    because with that option the html formatted part is removed if possible.
