Package: wwsympa
Version: 3.2.1-3.1
Severity: wishlist

The WWSympa interface has very a good archival system, which is very
usable. It also features a 'post' form for the list and the ability to
hit 'reply' in the Archives to get a post form for a message.

When you hit 'Reply' in the archives, however, the body of the previous
message is not put in the edit form.

This means that you lose the context of the previous message. It would
be great to see this enhanced to pick up the plain text (or formatted)
message text and cite it.

That way people would not lose context when a reply was sent.

Thanks,
Daniel
