[Tutor] OT: Test to see if ibisMail app is truly sending in plain text

[boB Stepp]

I apologize for the noise, but I felt it better to get this question answered definitively prior to posting questions from my iPad.

I am on a brief vacation and only brought my iPad. I have been having a devil of a time searching the Internet for an iPad app that will truly send and display in plain text emails. If someone would tell me if I have been successful or not, I would be very appreciative! If successful, Python questions will soon follow.

Thanks!

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.

Yes, plain text.

According to the full headers of your email, you are sending from:

X-Mailer: ibisMail for iPhone ver.4.0.9

with content:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Well, in replying to your message, Steve, I see that this is not the perfect iPad solution. After hitting reply all, it failed to give attribution to your comments. But as I have not been able to find anything better, I guess I can manually add attribution names, and make this work on the rare times when I must communicate with programming fora from my iPad. At least you have demonstrated that it is truly in plain text!

Have you tried using the Gmail app?

I'm using the Gmail app here on my phone. I've just looked at your message,
hit reply-all and then "respond inline". Then I can see/edit the
attribution line and your message. I've not had complaints with using the
list this way (perhaps I'm inviting them now though!)

Yes. That is my normal mail app.

That is how it works on my Nexus 5 phone, though I have not attempted to send an email to this list yet from it. However, on my iPad, this functionality is not present in the Gmail App. Why it would not be beats me, but unless there is a hidden setting or gesture I have missed, both by futzing around my actual iPad as well as searching the 'Net, then it is not available.
