Emailer allows for a much larger width than it sends on to the SMTP server. Why? I have NO idea. That just seems to be the way they wrote it. It will wrap the lines at 72 characters when it sends to the mail server. Why? Because some mail servers don't want longer lines. Some will accept any length per line, some will accept 256 characters per line, some will allow 80 characters per line. The end result is, what you write in Emailer is rarely what you get. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
