I think I see what you're saying now. It's not that mutt wouldn't display the whole message, but that when your window stops on the first terminal (logical) line of the last "physical" line of the message, mutt still indicates "All" instead of, e.g. "90%". This prompts you not to finish reading. It may be appropriate to do something about this in mutt. Regardless, whatever the other pros or cons of wrapping at N columns, this should not be counted among reasons to wrap. It should either be user (reader) error or software error, because it's entirely a consequence of how the reader's software works or fails to work well. -- David Champion • d...@bikeshed.us
