  Options - Preferences - Viewer/Editor - Editor preferences - Wrap text 
 at...
  and   ... Autowrap 
 on

  To reformat lines you can press Alt-L, this wraps according to your
  wrapping settings.

ux Thank you for replying Roelof,

ux i tried what you suggested, but this is what happens;

ux if i paste the text of an article into a new email, and then use
ux alt-L to wrap the text, all the spacing of the article from the
ux website gets lost, and i end up with one giant block of text,
ux without paragraph breaks.

Select  one  paragraph  at a time. When you reply to a message look at
the Utilities menu, make sure auto wrap is on.

From the main TB window go to optionspreferencesviewer/editoreditor
prefs  And  tell  us  what is ticked there, and what you have set the
auto wrap to.

ux ps. ive tried to change the signature to the sig limiter you
ux suggested, hope it works better now. 

Nope still broken. try --spacereturn

Hello usman x  everyone else,

Thats normal if you paste unformatted text. Paragraphs of a website are
only rendered on-screen by the HTML interpreter (the web browser), there
are no hard wraps in the text.

When I have to paste such text I put an empty line between the
what-used-to-be paragraphs (each is a separate very long line usually)
and then let TB format them with ALT+L. It works for me, and maybe there
is a more comfortable way that I don't (need to) know. :-)
