Wow. I haven't looked at defaults/pref in a few weeks. Mail-news prefs
are growing by leaps and bounds. Maybe some day there will be some UI to
go along with them? :) Turning off f=f for message view has effectively
resolved the long line problem, so I guess I don't need to file a bug
now. Way too cool!

I don't know which settings are at the server level and which at the
individual level, but there are attachment problems from these guys,
too. mozilla seems smart enough to deal with those, though.

Can't say I disagree with you, but considering the technical competancy
of both the individuals involved and the company, I don't have high
hopes that they'd get it right. :)
