} } There may be exceptions here and there, but long lines are normally sent in quoted-printable format, in which case LISTSERV counts them as multiple lines (as many as the mail client generated, typically one line for about 75 characters). SMTP only guarantees that 998 characters can be transmitted before a CRLF, so you pretty much have to QP-encode these lines.
}
} Then it looks like your mailer is one of the exceptions.  The paragraph
} above came to me as one long line of 350-400 characters.  And I have
} seen occasional paragraphs with no line break that 15-12 or more screen
} lines.

I may owe you an apology.  What I wanted to test before I sent the
earlier note was what the raw message looked like.  It did specify QP in
the header, and Erics paragraph was sent as seperate lines with "="s at
the end.  My mailer put them into one long line.
