Really?  Can you send a pointer to the RFC describing inline messages?  I've
tried locating the right RFC but haven't been able to do so.  Though I did
find this interesting quote (from the archives of gnupg-devel):

  It isn't.  There may be some ancient internet-drafts describing it,
  but it never made it to RFC level (which is a good thing).  Bad
  enough, it's still commonly used, with all the problems it brings.

  For guidance on how to implement it, please look at elm-me+ or mutt.

Has work been done since then on an RFC for inline messages?

TIA,
