Summary0005217: Summary formatting doesn't match Description formatting in email
Description

The summary formatting doesn't match description formatting in emails. The summary follows the "Summary:" label, where the description is on the line following the label. Long summaries look poor.

Additional Information

Example of current format:

Summary: A bug
Description:
Some stuff

Should be:
Summary:
A bug

Description:
Some stuff

reported on IRC

TagsNo tags attached.

Given there's been no attempt to fix this in 9 years, marking this as 'wont fix' on following basis:

a) will probably allow templates in emails after next release.

b) summary is supposed to be short, hence on same line. Description is more a 'text block' - hence on seperate line.

I personally wouldn't want to see summary on a seperate line in this context - and equally, moving description to start on the same line when it is a text block would probably get equal complaints due to indentation, so fix for this would be to allow users to customise via templates (Which is a seperate issue)
