Thanks for your observation.  A long time ago (1995) I was one of the editors 
of the Cumbre DX e-mail newsletter.  I always dreaded having to go into the 
submissions from DXers and delete all the carriage returns at the end of each 
line so when the input was copied into the newsletter with different line 
lengths I did not end up with short and long lines all in the same paragraph.  
Then I received one message from a certain DXer that I did not have to do this 
with.  It made editing so much easier.  I figured out what was going on.  Now I 
think everyone should should disable word wrap on outgoing messages.  That way 
the receiving system will automatically adjust for the display font size and 
monitor pixel setting.  I know most do not and I presume that is because "word 
wrap on" is usually a default mode.  So I have deliberately unselected word 
wrap on outgoing messages to ease the life of anyone wishing to resend and 
reformat my missives for publication. I was unaware that so!
 me e-mail programs do not have the ability to wrap automatically on received 
messages as at least an option.  Unless somebody complains, I will leave it set 
as is.
