Webmail.
Penango (the company of the author) is a webmail company and so I would imagine that they wish to declare a mimetype so that they can default to supplying a MIME part that is text/markdown as the body of a message.
- mkj 11y agoAh, thanks. I guess a simple markup for email would be nice, but cannot see it being adopted enough to make it worthwhile for senders.
- buro9 11y agoIt's quite a nice solution... as you can believe that the text part is formatted reasonably well enough that you could present it as the text/plain part to external systems, and yet you know that you can also transform it to create the text/html part for other systems. Whilst you only need to store the one part, the text/markdown. It also gives you the ability to run a sanitizer after the markdown transformation, so that if you are a webmail host (as they are) you've got this really nice place to perform sanitization of what will be the email HTML before you send it to your web page.
- aidenn0 11y agoDoes anybody know if RFC-1563[1] was adopted by many e-mail clients? 1: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1563 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1563
