Plaintext only mode

I totally support this request; that's what Foxmail, my favorite email client, does too

Ps
Sorry for my english, I use Google translate...

I support both requests; using plaintext only and being able to set style preferences for type, size and colour in HTML mode

Quite agree. Email composing is a bit broken at the moment (e.g. signatures, quoted lines), it would be Really Nice to be able to select text/html or text/plain as the format.

Hi,
I just started testing the vivaldi browser with the intention to switch from opera to vivaldi. So far it looks good.
Since yesterday I am looking into vivaldi mail. This ist still beta but on the right track. I used opera mail while it was running on linux (Debian).
Now I use Kmail.

To me resticting all mail to plain text is essential. Especially when viewing received mail. This together with the option of a souce code view of the mail is a savety feature. It allows me to thoroughly inspect every doubious mail before opening it in HTLM view.

To me this is an essential requirement for my mail client.
So it looks like I have to wait before I can consider switching to vivaldi mail.

You can already press Ctrl+U when viewing mails to see their source.
Also, please upvote the first post in order to show your support.

As @jumpsq said, the feature to toggle HTML and text only views for emails has been implemented and has now reached the Stable version of Vivaldi as well.
For sending plain text emails, what I said in the past still applies. As long as you don't use any styling options, the email will be sent as plain text.

Is it possible to reply in plain text mode to an email arrived in HTML? How?

If you have Mail rendering set to "text only" at the URL vivaldi://settings/mail, the HTML message will be displayed as plain text and replying will be in plain text.
