I'm not sure what you mean. Are you talking about escape sequences that
manipulate screen attributes in the mail message itself? If so, and if
you are using ELM's builtin pager to display your message, they won't be
output. The builtin pager displays non-printing characters with ^X notation.
Thus what was an escape sequence in the message gets converted to something
which your terminal doesn't take to be an attributing setting sequence.
