Does your mail program have a search/replace capability that supports regular expressions? If "yes", you might be able to trim the trailing blanks with something like: replace all ' *$' with '' (The above example assumes Unix-style regexps. And note that the search string begins with two blanks. If you happen to be using UltraEdit, that would be '\s+$'.)
