Most mail readers wrap long lines automatically, and by typing long lines
the reader can automatically size things to the size of your screen.

If you're using Netscape, in the Mail window, when you have messages, go to
"view", then select "wrap long lines". That will make the problem go away.
This is for the browser version - I don't use "communicator", it
undoubtably has the same option but it may've moved somewhere else. Just
look for it, that's how I found this one :)

Eudora - a nice mailer, the "lite" version is free from www.eudora.com -
defaults to this mode.

I'm posting this to "tweeters" rather than replying individually because my
experience on other lists is that quite a few folks use Netscape as their
mailer and are unaware of the availability of the "wrap long lines" option.
