(I thought I better change the subject line)


There is one thing - jokes aside - that has troubled me: I am never
confident enough that my text will not be unwrapped here and there. I get
lots of emails where the text needs rewrapping (you know, in the middle of a
sentence it continues to the next line unnecessarily). There are obviously
hidden characters telling the prgm to do this. When I remember, I use my
rewrap paragraphs command hoping this fixes it? Often this command works to
tidy up incoming messages which I do when someone sends a long but
promisingly good joke (I hit reply and rewrap just to read it in comfort).
Sometimes opening ones email window wider fixes. This whole business is a
touch murky to me, I have a few rough rules to manage, but nothing elegant
and sure. Maybe this is a place where other email prgms have better auto
management facilities? I know I can work in a text editor to see all this
hidden stuff, but not in OE.
