{.quotelead} strings in markdown2html messages

Tue Jun 29 18:36:57 UTC 2021

Hi,

I'm using mutt 2.1 on an ubuntu 20.04 distribution.

I am a big fan of the markdown2html script (in contrib), which allows me to
write messages in markdown format. The script converts the message into html
and mutt sends them as attachments.

However, lately the script writes strange `{.quotelead}` strings, as can be
seen in the recipe below. I'd rather get rid of those, but unfortunately
i don't know how. Any help in this regard would be much appreciated!

So, say I have this message

keep cool
                                bob

which I feed to markdown2html via

$ cat msg.txt | python3 ~/src/mutt/contrib/markdown2html

And I obtain the following html output. Note the "{.quotelead}" strings in
the output.
