I understand.  It is on messages to some other lists, hosted by two very different 
servers.  Unfortunatley, one of them is St Johns and I belong to several lists.  The 
other is home to 3 lists that I am on.  So, it is a huge problem for me.

I did check my editor preferences.  It is set to wrap lines at 70!  I did, however, 
change to the MicroEd editor to see if that would make a difference.  FWIW, on the 
lists I am on (which are on another e-mail address of mine) I've tried using both 
viewers and neither made a difference.

familiarity (like notepad in use)? 

Yes, I am certain.
