Description Bojan Smojver 2013-06-27 06:39:15 UTC
Description of problem:
If I use Edit as New Message on a message I sent before (they are all plain text - haven't tried any other format), the message being composed contains the following, which should not be there:

- a starting empty line
- duplicate of the signature

I think this actually started with the previous version of Gnome (I was just too lazy to file a bug).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-3.8.3-1.fc19.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send (plain text?) message.
2. Pick Edit as New Message.

Actual results:
Extra artefacts in the message.

Expected results:
No leading empty line and only one signature.

Thanks for a bug report. It doesn't sound like a Fedora related problem, thus I move this upstream. I found a similar upstream bug report [1], thus let's move there. See [1] for any further updates.
