Many thanks for this Marph. Pleased it wasn't just me!
I've just manually installed your fixed version and it's now working - many thanks!

Hi I'm new to this plugin and was just wondering why "text LF LF text" gets converted to "text LF LF SP SP LF LF text" so all the lines of text get spaced out with 2 extra lines?
Hi, I can't reproduce. Left is Thunderbird, right is Joplin. (It would make sense to replace the <br/> with a proper newline, though.)
Can you provide an example? Also might be relevant:
- OS (I tested on Ubuntu)
- Is it a plain text or an HTML mail?
- Did you export by the button on top or the right click context menu?
In general, the text is taken from Thunderbird's API and forwarded to Joplin (almost) unmodified.
Hi, thanks for getting back so quickly.
I don't know how to add pics like you did.
So:
screenshot.238 - plain text email screenshot from Thunderbird
screenshot.239 - text copied from Thunderbird, pasted into Notepad++ with show all characters
screenshot.240 - as it appears in Joplin Markdown editor window with the extra blank lines
screenshot.241 - text copied from Joplin, pasted into Notepad++ showing the extra LFs and spaces shown as red dots
OS Windows 10 Home 22H2
Thunderbird 128.4.3esr (64-bit)
Joplin Portable 3.1.24 (prod,win32)
Joplin Export emails 0.0.8
I exported by the button in T'bird's top bar to the right of the search field
Best regards, Roger

Thanks for the example. I configured my Thunderbird to use "Body Text" by default. When switching back to "Paragraph" and adding some line breaks it's reproducible.
I added an issue on Github.
