Return of the missing Yahoo HTML email stripping bug

Continuing the discussion from HTML email signature not being stripped out of notification reply:

It’s back, although now with extra email quoting inclusion as well. :slightly_smiling:

Yes this is for @zogstrip

Or not… :frowning:

Can you send me the raw email?

Of course; check your messages. :wink:

Looks like it’s working as expected here. (Except for the fact that we can’t properly identify user signatures and new lines, which are really hard problems)

Is there a preferred format for email signatures that is easily strippable by Discourse? If so we, could let our members know the format.

Looks like this is optimized for stripping out Mobile signatures:

Our biggest offenders come from Desktop clients, for example:

In our case, we could gently encourage our users to proceed their signatures with something like: --------------------<line break> if that is acceptable.

Has this option already been considered: Open sourcing our email signature parsing library | Mailgun ?

We have re-written our library over the years, it is indeed inspired by MailGun Talon and other libs.

I think this is fixed.
