Hey, @gerhard . I’m still doing an import with a bunch of mailing lists sucked in to nabble. There are a bunch of posts that are announcements and have a line of dashes near the top, so the whole post gets truncated by trim since the line is a delimiter: lib/email_reply_trimmer.rb main …

[image] pfaffman: But is there a better way? Remove that line before passing the email to the importer?

Well that’s hilariously obvious. :blush:

This has now been fixed, see FIX: preserve inline replies and image lines when trimming emails - Pull Request #25 - discourse/email_reply_trimmer - GitHub
