Description Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-02-28 16:41:40 UTC
From NEWS file:
> Quote MML tags in replies
>
>  MML tags are text codes that Emacs uses to indicate attachments
>  (among other things) in messages being composed.  The Emacs
>  interface did not quote MML tags in the quoted text of a reply.
>  User could be tricked into replying to a maliciously formatted
>  message and not editing out the MML tags from the quoted text.  This
>  could lead to files from the user's machine being attached to the
>  outgoing message.  The Emacs interface now quotes these tags in
>  reply text, so that they do not effect outgoing messages.

Reproducible: Always
