Well, thanks Tony but the lines are blank, not continuations of
anything. It doesn't seem to happen in the body. But this is a minor
hindrance compared to the editor going wacko on me. I don't use it
for e-mails, I am continually editing a WEB site and it is not an
option.

The blank lines only affect our personal sense of coding aesthetics. I
have seen the same thing so I keep my own lines trimmed and use
SeaMonkey Composer and that keeps
the problem minimal.

As I said, a truly *empty* line (with not even a space in it) marks the end of the headers, so it affects more than just aesthetics. OTOH, a blank *nonempty* line in the headers (i.e. a line consisting of *at least one* space or tab) *is* technically a continuation line -- it adds one space to the previous line, which normally makes no difference.


My guess is that there is a residual 'formatted' embedded somewhere in
the code.


And to make sure there is no misunderstanding, by "headers" I mean email or newsgroup headers: here are those of the message to which I'm replying here, and the next line is empty:

(I'm using "Paste as Quotation" to avoid additional line breaks) (Notice the continuation line starting with one space after the "Subject:" line, and also notice the absence of embedded empty lines.)

Space is big.  You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-
bogglingly big it is.  I mean, you may think it's a long way down the
road to the drug store, but that's just peanuts to space.
