On my computer I can forward emails without losing the original, my colleague used exactly the same template as me and on his computer, the previous emails are missing.  


He then added the %QUOTE and then it worked.  I did not need to add it.  We are both using 9.4.4. (but wish we were still using 9.3.x due to the many editor bugs.

Crazy!

This was my fault, as the macro %quote was missing in the template of my reply.

For the time being I also had to revert to 9.3.4... The new HTML Editor is so buggy it can't be used (like replying the messages). I experience many problems already submitted (https://bt.ritlabs.com/view.php?id=2147)  Paragraphs are changing layout, bullet list are misaligned… It looks like it wasn’t tested at all :(

Thanks Francis, but please note that this is just a user-to-user forum. If you send your observations to Ritlabs (using the Support menu above this page), they may fix the problems in the next release. In this particular case, I would include your reply template with your report.

For those interested in a more active role in solving bugs and adding features, I would recommend joining the Beta test mailing list at https://www.mail-archive.com/tbbeta@thebat.dutaint.com/ (press 'tbbeta' in the top-right corner for instructions).

Daniel van Rooijen,The new version is better but there are still problems like an email that disappears completely in the reply email or the impossibility to insert text at the top of a reply, even in the HTML editor.

I totally agree. As a retired freelance software developer, I find it hard to accept this situation.

I have reported it, and apparently the bugs are being worked on for the next release.

Peter, don't forget to write all you bugs to the support by ticket.

Is there any point in reporting a bug? I'll try it, as I've had good responses from the dev team in the past, but I agree with David that customers shouldn't be expected to do all the testing. This sort of thing really shouldn't have been part of a formal release.

Well, as you've seen, the HTML editor has been replaced by a new one. Ritlabs is working hard to iron out the wrinkles.

Just upgraded to 9.4.1. The editor seems to have changed completely, and not for the better:

  • Using the spell-checker inserts text in the wrong font (9-point rather than 10-point), and with newlines before and after.
  • I can no longer select text and drag it to a new place.
  • The displayed font is not the correct size (seems to be 11 rather than 10-point).
