You're correct -- the current list server passes HTML mail 'as is'; when I
ran a list server here locally, I configured Mailman to translate HTML->text
which resulted in an absence of word-wrap. So when I see that problem, I
still think 'HTML'. That was obviously not the case here.

My mailer (Thunderbird) also wraps at the window border, except when replying.

Joel -- there may be an option to word-wrap in your Earthlink client.

Thanks,
