Exactly like I expected it to.

It is taking the first line of text, regardless of what that is to populate the Subject Field, if you do not use the --SUBJ:-- line.

Yes. With subj. some kind of incomprehensible bullshit is going on. Need to fix it.

Have a nice night.

Yes, indeed that is what is happening. But I would expect the
parsing to ignore the top lines of the message that contain the
magic "--to: --<CR>" and/or "--subj: --<CR>" lines as subject lines.
After all, the real body of the message is after those things.

You're dealing with separate lines of code.
--To:-- , --Subj:-- are specific for the bot to identify the To and
Subject fields for the Fido side.

I believe Stas has said that if a message from Telegram is a reply to a
Fido message, it retains the subject, but I could be mistaken.

But if the message originates in Telegram, or is a reply to a Telegram
message written in Telegram, if it doesn't have the --Subj:-- line, it
is told to take the first line or number of characters in the message
body for the title. And those instruction lines for To and Subject are
still only lines of text as far as anything is concerned unless the code specifically states otherwise.

Yes... they are specific to the bot, as commands, and therefore maybe should not be considered as part of the normal message after being "used". Netmail in nntp and bbs systems operates similarly; if the first line in the body is something like "to: fn ln, z:n/f.p" then that info is used to build the necessary FTN header for netmail, and then discarded. The rest of that original message is the actual message content.

Yes, I am familiar with that.

But if the message originates in Telegram, or is a reply to a Telegram message written in Telegram, if it doesn't have the --Subj:-- line, it
is told to take the first line or number of characters in the message
body for the title. And those instruction lines for To and Subject are still only lines of text as far as anything is concerned unless the
code specifically states otherwise.

Perhaps the code could include something to "remove" the --subj:-- and/or --to:-- lines of text - afterall, they are "instruction" codes, and not the message.
