OTOH it's the trend of the day. He is saying *if* you get HTML mail
(which I hate myself), you will need to see it correctly. I like what
TB does: you can toggle HTML Autoview off/on, but it will *not*
connect you to web page or whatever. This prevents trojans or whatever
to invade your system. I wouldn't like TB's behaviour to change.

Right.

In the editor window, I always have View/From Addr "on". so I see what
account any particular email is sent from - and can change that easily
with Options/Active Account.

Change case exists, somebody just reported crtl-], crtl-[, crtl-\.
Check out. "Wrap" exists, play a bit with the Utilities menu in the
editor window, and also try alt-j, alt-c, alt-L. I don't know what is
"unwrap".

Hit the period key ".", and a sentence will finish and a new one
start. Hit "enter" twice, and a new paragraph will start. ;-) IOW I
don't understand your question.

Options-->>>Avtive account is checked.
Or: keep View/From Address "on". No need to click anything.
