t-prot | display filter for RFC822 messages | Mehr ...
This program is a filter which shall improve the readability for messages (email and posts) by *hiding* some annoying parts, e.g. mailing list footers, signatures and TOFU as well as squeezing sequences of blank lines or punctuation. . TOFU is an acronym that stands for "Text oben, Fullquote unten" (german language) which means the style of sadly so many people that just leave all the quotes in a reply and add some own lines above. This acronym is what gave the script its name - TOFU Protection. . It currently offers hints how to include it within mutt, slrn or inn2. It should be possible to do similars with other programs that allow to have a message run through a filter before it's displayed. If you use such a program we'd be interested if you could let us know of your setup.
