Mark, First, I do not like Billy Gate either. But I find your insistence that all you have is HOTMAIL for your email facilities a bit disingenuous. Your message header indicates you are getting to the WEB through Southwest Bell, a division of AT&T Internet services. If that is correct, then y

All the CR/LF strangeness that I have been having are absolutely positively Microsoft's fault. Hotmail is a web based email. You enter your text in a standard web form. Words wrap at the right margin. When you get to the end of a paragraph you press RETURN to start a new paragraph and RETUR
