+hey y'all--
+
+i use notmuch-emacs, and i'm noticing an fair number of respondents
+trying to do interleaved responses with MUAs that do the whole
+"-----Original Message-----" silliness.
+
+As a result, notmuch-show displays the entire message as something like:
+
+
+ [ 69-line hidden original message. Click/Enter to show. ]
+
+Seems like notmuch-show could be cleverer.  how about something like
+this:
+
+ * if the entire displayed MIME part appears to be nothing but
+   whitespace and a "original message", then don't auto-collapse it.
+
+Alternately:
+
+ * if the entire displayed MIME part appears to be nothing but
+   whitespace and a "original message" then don't treat it as an
+   "original message" at all, but apply the normal part-guessing and
+   collapsing logic to the internal content of the "original message"
+
+any thoughts?
