You'd be a good model if you'd have set up your installation to respect the common used values too. 90 characters ain't that widely used, 70-78 is quite more common. Next is to avoid white spaces in front of punctuation, that avoids results like in the former shown paragraph, last line, when rewrapping is done. > When I ask people to set up their email program or account properly > most don't bother... All this wastes a lot of my time! Than don't rewrap. Send them their stuff as it is received at your side. Or use a re-wrap macro as for example given here: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/Library.html > Best regards, > Miles > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Using The Bat! v1.53d on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A > ________________________________________________ > Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: > http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html And last but not least: use a signature delimiter.
