Thanks, Ted & Tracy
The only options Outlook.com gives me is Font and font size.  I switched to 
Courier to help keep the spacing rational, but it doesn't seem to help.
I sent an email to Ed Leafe this AM about it.  IIRC, ProFox removes HTML markup 
and sends plain text thru the list serve. I've looked at my messages in Hex, 
and they have 20 spaces and CRLF at the ends of the lines like they should. 
And when I send formatted code directly to myself, not thru ProFox, it arrives 
exactly as I intended.  So it seems to be something that Outlook.com is putting 
in that Ed's processing doesn't like.  
Wish I knew what it was.
