Bug Description

I'm using alpine 0.99+dfsg-1 on Gutsy. When I try to answer to an e-mail with the following headers:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

alpine only indents the first line of the e-mail, i.e. I get this in the editor:
===cut here===

As far as I know, it only happens with this content type and encoding.

Hello,

I believe this issue is solved in the latest release of alpine. (I am the Debian maintainer of alpine.)

Do you get this problem if you use Ubuntu Hardy?

As a note to NAR - please contact me if you need help testing with the current version of Alpine. I'm happy to help you personally to find out if we should reopen this bug. We can upgrade just alpine without you upgrading your whole Ubuntu system.

Or just upgrade to Hardy. (-;
