Standards are not knee-jerk reactions.  If you insist on sending
unformatted e-mails, don't be upset with the complaints you get from
recipients.  The Bat! is an e-mail client, not a DTP utility.  The
function it performs is that of conveying textual information in an
efficient and straight-forward manner.  Unformatted lines, Rich Text,
HTML, XML etc. do not enhance that function.

However, if you insist on long lines that will, no doubt, cause readers to use the 
horizontal scroll bar, or view the message in an uncontrolled, and most likely, 
unwanted manner, then by all means turn off "Utilities/Auto-Wrap" (Shift-Ctrl-W).

Should the demonstration in the previous paragraph actually work, my
apologies to everyone else.
