continuing a draft

Sometimes I start to compose a message and then realise that I need
some other information to finish.  I save it as a draft and go off to
do other things.  Later I want to continue editing.  I go to the
"+drafts" folder and I can view my incomplete message, but how do I
start editing it again?

At the moment I have to copy the contents, start a new draft and
paste it all in, which can't be right.

Type "E" (wl-summary-reedit).

'E' is your friend.

obs-phrase handling in std11.el

rfc2822 says the phrase includes period should be interpreted propery.
This is a flim bug at the point of rfc2822 view and attached patch will
fix this.

Although rfc2822 also says obsolete format must not be generated,
therefore, the solution on your side is to quote the address like:
    "Wolfgang L. Hottgenroth" <woho <at> hottis.de>

I think Wanderlust (or semi) should confirm not to send message with
obsolete format.

Html mail causes emacs to eat all cpu


Hello to everyone on the list.
I am using GNU emacs 21.3.1, semi 1.14.6, flim 1.14.6, wanderlust
2.10.1 on Debian GNU/linux testing (Sarge). I am using the standard
Debian packages. Sometimes when I 
receive some html mails, emacs freezes and eats up all the cpu. I have
to manually kill emacs and start wanderlust again, I then delete the
relevant mail without viewing it. Could you please have any idea as to
where the problem is?
Here is my .emacs config for wanderlust:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;; Configuration for Wanderlust a email/news handling package
;; with MIME support. This is continued in .wl
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

;; [[ SEMI Setting ]]

;; Disable inline display of HTML part.
;; Put before load `mime-setup'
(setq mime-setup-enable-inline-html nil)

;; Don't split large message.
(setq mime-edit-split-message nil)

;; If lines of message are larger than this value, treat it as `large'.
;(setq mime-edit-message-default-max-lines 1000)

(require 'mime-setup)

If anyone has a different working configuration to view html mails I
will be happy to hear it. It seems w3 has problems. Anyway sorry for
the trouble.

Installing the emacs-w3m and (require 'mime-w3m) may make you happy. :-)

I assume you are using w3? For starters, I'd recommend w3m. Get w3m
itself from http://w3m.sourceforge.net, then emacs-w3m from
http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org. Then just put (require 'mime-w3m) in your
init file. IMHO, w3m is much more stable than w3, and has better
rendering, even than lynx or other text-mode browsers.

(Incidentally, this is the second time this question has come up in
the past 24 hours... perhaps it's time to add it to the FAQ? Does
anybody know who maintains the English FAQ?)

I'd also recommend an upgrade to xemacs 21.4, but that's probably not
related to your current problem...

My guess is that w3 is getting confused with the html and looping.
I'd suggest using emacs-w3m to render your html which (IME) is faster
and more robust.  For Debian, installing the "w3m-el" package and
restarting emacs should make it all Just Work.

If it is w3 (elisp) looping, you should be able to break out of it by
pressing C-g..
