Well all, I humbly come to the table with my head hung. As it has been
pointed out to me, Netscape not only wraps your outgoing messages at the
line length you want (72 char/line on my setting) but also will wrap
incoming long lines for you (select View->Wrap long lines).
So, I appreciate those who pointed this out to me. I feel bad for those
who are forced to use an inferior mail reader (does Lotus Notes fall
into this category?) and it no longer matters to me as I've been able to
take corrective action on this end (i.e. I now wrap long lines in my
reader :-)).
Now, back to 3D,
Ron
