My only question is WHY?!?!  It does not make sense to have done this on
purpose.  All I want is a few carriage returns inserted into the document
that I want sent back to people, to break up multiple paragraphs.  Just
because the default is to send back short snippets of text, it should not
mean that I should be forced to do the same.  Looks like short-sidedness on
the programming end to me.
