Indeed I used to change it when I posted code or text with long lines, but now I can't find it anywhere in the setup menus. > Seems like at very least one can access it the hard way: > > 1) Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Config Editor. > 2) Type 'wrap' into the Search: input field > 3) In my case: > > mail.wrap_long_lines -> false > mailnews.wraplength -> 999 > news.wrap_long_lines -> false Yes, I see, thanks. Mine is set to 72, and I'm not going to change this, since I need it (or at least it should be set IMHO) for other newsgroups. The strange part (why I wrote "Yes and no" above) is that I can see the wrapped text in the source (view source option), but there is also the "format = flowed" option, so that Thunderbird shows my own post with full length (not wrapped) lines. This can sometimes be annoying when viewing, but much more when replying to someone else's post, since the cited post doesn't show wrapping, and there is only one long line per paragraph. Sigh. I can also copy'n'paste text (the long source code) from my own post, and the text (source code) is not wrapped. This is why I usually prefer to add code as attachments, but then I also read that someone couldn't read this, because it was mangled (maybe Base64 encoded or something like that). However, looking at my previous attachment, this is all in clear-text, no wrapped lines, certainly as I intended.
