Not Working?

[diabl0w]

Is there a trick to make this work? I put the "(add-hook 'message-mode-hook 'messages-are-flowing-use-and-mark-hard-newlines)" into my init file and it properly puts the new line icons in my messages, but it doesnt change anything about the display on mobile clients including gmail and outlook... they still have ugly line breaks.

As a side note, I see gnus as a recommended email client for emacs for years with all of these complicated setups and saying how great it is, yet there is barely anyone talking about this fundamental issue. I feel like im missing something.

I have also been very confused by this issue. I've tried this package and the the recommendations on the EmacsWiki ([0]), but have never been able to get Gmail to respect "format=flowed" for mails sent from Emacs gnus or notmuch.

As far as I can tell, the screenshot in the Readme is misleading, and Gmail does not respect format=flowed ([1], [2]). I think Gmail did respect "format=flowed" at some point in the past, but it seems to no longer do so, whether in the web-UI or in the Android app. Please correct me if I am wrong.

If this is the case, I think it would be a good idea to remove those screenshots in the Readme.
