I was wondering how could that be, and then you wrote: LD> I was using 1.63 beta 7, and thought maybe this was the problem (I LD> had rich text as the viewer, plain text windows as the editor). The plain text (Windows) editor in the beta will not wrap text on sending. The wrapping you see while composing is soft-wrapping and not hard-wrapping. What most e-mail editors will do is to wrap the text on sending. TB! never had need for this since it's original editor (MicroEd) doesn't support soft-wrapping. It hard wraps as you type. Hopefully, the alternative editor will have the wrap on send feature added to it. However, that's a beta issue and is really for TBBETA. This message you sent is wrapped just fine, and I assume that you composed it using v1.62, right? LD> I just switched back to 1.62, and I'm still having the problem. With viewing messages you had previously sent with the beta version. You shouldn't be having the problem with new messages you send using v1.62 and the original editor.
