E-Mail Client by Ritlabs version 6.0.12 > Windows 10 Home Build 9200 Concerning your sig file, I had the same problem it wasn't being recognised the two dashes were there but the space was missing. I was creating my sig files in HTML mode which failed I found using plain text to create the sig all was well again. It always used to work in HTML but a while back it stopped working. I just selected all my sig file and then selected plain text and it seemed to work. Hope this helps Jack.

Difficult to reply to you, as you are top-posting. No, it does not make sense, as it means you cannot read it properly. And over here, it does not have (even when I leave your mails as HTML), all lines are properly wrapped. So I am a bit surprised that it happens to you.

A> A> -- A> Warmest regards, A> A> Acheton A> Created using TheBat! 9.3.2 on Windows 10 Hmmm, very interesting. When I reply to this (your) email, I'm replying with your email quoted in the my reply. Your entire sig appears, cut mark, Warmest regards etc. If I "select" (highlight) your cut mark, the highlight stops after the two dashes. It does not stop after the trailing dash as you would expect indicating that the trailing space is not there. This is what prompted me to remark on it in the first place. However, since this email also contains my original email to you, my sig is displayed also which means mine didn't work either. If I try to select (highlight) my cut mark. It will highlight the two dashes but not the trailing space. Actually since my sig appears in the first place it would indicate that my cut mark doesn't work also. And I *know* my cut mark is dash, dash, space. It would seem that TB is stripping the trailing space on our cut marks thereby rendering them inoperative. Or I've totally misconstrued the function of the cut marks in the first place. -- Regards, Jack Central Alabama USA The Bat!

Re: How to see the whole email on the screen
Hi Thomas, Thanks for the reply, it appears that this only happens when I am replying to an email which is wider than the screen, at which points it goes outside of the bounds of the window - which makes some sense. thanks Ach Saturday, January 16, 2021, 2:26:27 AM, you wrote: Hello Acheton, On Fri, 15 Jan 2021 13:35:42 + GMT (15-Jan-21, 20:35 +0700 GMT), Acheton wrote: I wondered whether anyone could help.
