This reply was sent with inbound and outbound word wrapping disabled. I'm also creating a rather long paragraph in order to see what happens to the outbound text with both wrappings disabled. Maybe all of *my* whiny noises about word wrap are due to Balsa not doing what I think is "reasonable" but my configuration is set to force it to do unreasonable things. Toggling "Format=Flowed" in the Options menu from off to on to off doesn't give you the original buffer back. As I just found out. That's also not good, IMO. _______________________________________________ balsa-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/balsa-list
