How can I display HTML mails WYSIWYG (including blockquotes) ?

Hello. Thunderbird displays HTML blockquotes with a border-left style (even if no border-left style is defined in the message). How can I disable this behaviour ?

I would like to see incoming and outgoing HTML messages in an "unaltered" WYSIWYG way (as much as possible) so that I can see what I truly send/receive. (For example, I don't want to see the blue left quote border in outgoing messages when the recipient won't see them and, conversely, I don't want to see blue left quote borders if the sender didn't send them.)

I would be most thankful if anybody knows a solution without userChrome (because I don't want to over-override Thunderbird's style override, but disable it in the first place). Thank you so much!

I presume you have View>Message Body as>Orignal HTML. Would you be able to post a screenshot of an example of what you are seeing? Thank you,

Yes.

I just figured out that a simple < blockquote > has no border. The border-left is displayed (as seen in the attached screenshot) due to < blockquote type="cite" > although it shouldn't be according to https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_blockquote_test

How can I post code here ?

Okay, I"m a little confused. Are you referring to the HTML tag, 'blockquote', or to the colored line that appears to the left in responses to identify the quoted element? If the latter, the addon, quote colors & collapse, may be useful.

Thanks David.

Check the source of your HTML replies. Thunderbird automatically adds
type="cite"
to blockquotes in replies and – contrary to Firefox – renders this with a blue border-left.

Below is the HTML source, which renders as displayed in the attached screenshot above. No addons please (for the same reason as mentioned above for userChrome).

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=">
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">on 4 July 2024 someone wrote:<br>
    </div>
    <blockquote type="cite"> This blockquote has a border-left, although no border-left is defind.<br>
    </blockquote>
  </body>
</html>

You are wanting the reply HTML to be changed, but you do not want CSS or an addon . There is no magic here, and I doubt the developers will rewrite the code for the request, as that quote is universally accepted to display responses. Thunderbird is a crisp, internet-compliant client, and if you want non-complaint views, you will be forced to do manual changes.
