When sending a mail from [outlook.com](http://outlook.com), newlines are stripped.

Are you sure? Did you try with the same email? They both use the same code path.

I’ve noticed (and been wanting to report) that when I edit a mailed in post via the web interface, the newlines return. Maybe you’re facing this issue too?

Ok, need to rephrase: it happens for **both** group and category mail, and it happens when sent from [outlook.com](http://outlook.com) (the web client).

The issue is that some email providers add newlines every 80 characters or so. We added a _fix_ to mitigate this issue but I don’t really like how it works. So I just removed it, let’s see if this is better

There are still some lines removed I’m afraid.
