Just my $0.02. If there were an internet standard though, the lines would be broken up properly so I could read them. As for your screen being 132 characters with X-Windows and your not wishing to cut and wrap it, I'm actually amazed this message of yours came through properly. I didn't have to modify it inthe least to make it readsable, but many times, when I recieve messages from Netscape's Mozilla, I do have this problem. Somehow, your mail program is smart enough to chop it to 80 columns before it sends it out. Glenn
